I think my primary distaste for Wi-Fi tends to be generations of obtuse binary blobs, and driver support that's scattershot and years coming. TBH, I'd love to see Wi-Fi presented as a bridge device rather than a direct NIC-- the host PC sees an Ethernet chipset that has drivers that work on anything from MS-DOS 3.3 onward, and when first booted, you connect to a simulated network containing a REST endpoint/web page which lets you configure the WLAN side.
