No wireless communication will beat physical connection ever. Period. There's not argument in it to be had.

All of wireless bandwidth can be crammed in a single fiber optic cable. All of it, with room to spare. And then you realize you can run as many as you like in parallel while in wireless communication only one device can talk at the time.

Cables are here to stay.
