The renewed focus on reliability is motivated by emerging applications. Imagine a wireless factory robot in a situation where a worker suddenly steps in front of it and the robot needs to make an immediate decision.

This example is a real WTF. I really hope nobody is planning on building safety-critical real-time systems on top of WiFi!

I work in autonomous vehicle engineering. That's not even on the table for something we'd consider doing. But China is trying to enter the market hard, and I am less sure they wouldnt do that.
