I think what I was saying is that a lot of people can get gigabit switches for home use now. That's what I got, I have a cheap 8 port Netgear gigabit switch. So I connect one laptop to it wired, one access point, a raspberry pi that doesn't do anything yet, and my just bought old server. The server has 4 NIC ports, but I only connected one for now.
I transfer files between my laptop and the server faster than I can transfer it using a USB flash drive.

I'm not talking about the internet speed. For internet access, you get whatever you can afford, or whatever is available to you. Google Fiber is not going to be where I am for a long time ... but my brother and a friend are already on 50 mbps DSL (fiber).

Gigabit switches were available for a long time, not sure what your point is nor why this is relevant?

Having too much wisdom is a dangerous thing, it might drag you too far away from majority and you will be isolated

Of course your plan is to follow the blind majority. Why does this not surprise me?

That's the benefit of simplicity if you just keep raising the block size limit, just keep adding more capacity on everything and destroy the system.

FTFY. Keep adding more load to that plane, eventually it will crash.
