For a lot of people the benefits show up because they have more devices sharing that connection. Before our kids moved to school we had 5 people on our home connection. Each with multiple devices, all trying to work or play games or stream content at the same time.

For one person with one computer it’s probably delightful overkill. For a modern family unit it can make everyone happy.
