- People worked from home perfectly effectively on ISDN. Dual-bonded if you were fancy. Lack of bandwidth has never been the problem, not for decades, literally.
- What does that even mean? It means services off in a datacentre somewhere and no/minimal state maintained on the client. You can, and people did, do that with dial-up modems.
- For what?
- Bandwidth isn't the problem there either. It's the budget to pay huge teams to create the volume of detailed content required. Games are converging with movies in this respect.
- No-one will touch this with a bargepole, not until it is economic to deliver 5-9s reliability.
- If you build it they will come? I am reminded of Wayne's World II.
