That's awesome :-)

A question on that topic: In your experience - since surely you also
work with real hardware - is it plausible that hardware has both S1G and
"regular" WiFi support (2.4/5/6 GHz)? Because hwsim does that and it's
caused some issues with the large number of channels and such before, so
I wonder if we shouldn't be more realistic and at least make the default
not be that, unless we ever expect real HW to exist that does all of
S1G/2.4/5/6 combined?
