Wired is not always faster. I have a WiFi 6 router at home that (only) has gigabit ports, and wireless speeds are often faster than wired.
WiFi 6 is quite common in consumer electronics, but 2.5gbit is not.
Then that’s the fault of the device design, or using incorrect cables, and not of the communication standard. Using cheap CAT5 cables that max out at 100Mbit instead of good quality 6a cables is going to mess up speeds too.
WiFi 6 offers ~9Gbps under ideal conditions, and that deteriorates with all the usual reasons for WiFi, and wired is 10 Gbps for whatever distance. The standard says wired is faster. Your particular device failing to meet those speeds doesn’t represent the communication methods.
So you agree that wired is not always faster… It depends on the hardware you’re using. And most consumer grade hardware you can buy today has faster wireless speeds than wired.
Wireless is only faster if wired is using outdated or underdeveloped gear. If a box has faster wireless than wired connection, then it was clearly designed to cater to wireless. GbE can hit up to 100gb.

Show me one home that is wired with cat8 cables lol. Then I’m going to show you the millions of homes that have an isp provided wifi 6 router.
