Or traditional network with Ethernet backhaul and lots of access points. I really wish mesh networks would die off honestly.

Mesh should be an option of last resort. It reduces the speed and increases the latency quite a bit. The only thing worse is power line networking, which has the side effect of turning your whole house into an RF jammer.
