(ETA: I just realized there are a page and a half of posts I didn't read before posting. Sorry if this was already addressed.)
Now if you are talking 400gbit/s what is mentioned for lifi - that is truly upractical at home (wired or wireless) for now with a handful of devices even without considering internet. To put it in prospective 400gbit/s is twice the speed of the maximum burst transfer rate of DDR4-6400 - that is around 25GByte/s. You do the math how long it will take to write to disk, even if you have an ssd connected through pcie for say only a minute at full speed (which not even the ram can keep up at perfect best).
