Wireless VNC was unusable due to LAG
USB2 should be nominal 480Mbit/s (60 MB/s)
802.11n could be, very grossly, 50Mbit/s (6MB/s)
So, I would say that it stands.

I believe that the data exchange is through serial though, because I suspect that to set a TCP/IP network through rndis0 you require root privileges, you cannot just establish it through a software application.

Nonetheless, when stress-testing VNC I could not go beyond 15MB/s, so you should have plenty of bandwidth with USB2, even going from that nominal value to its half after overheads etc. No need for USB3.
