I think this is correct for "most" people most of the time. I'm less certain that'll hold in a decade or so.
Every once in a while, I need to pull down a big data set and it's nice to only wait tens of seconds instead instead of having enough time to go make a quick cup of coffee while I wait.
I have friends that are content-creator adjacent and they routinely sling around massive amounts of footage for editing and other production reasons. Depending on the video, target audience/platform and a few other variables, waiting for the raw footage or even the final export to upload and become available for distribution can cost real money. E.G.: if the press embargo expires for $theHotNewTech at 11 AM and you're still waiting for footage to upload, your competitors will have a video ready to go and YouTube will show their video and not yours. Being "first" on that platform for certain events has a MASSIVE impact on how well the video "performs".
