And that's the exact point. The bottleneck is the cable modem, and

wireless network, a 100 MBPS cabled network, Gigabit over ethernet or
fiber.

Assuming the only data transfers are thru the modem. When I upgraded
my home LAN from 10 to 100 Mbps, the difference between computers
was astounding. Now I can go to gigabit and can't imagine why I'd
want to go backwards to wireless.

For some people, it makes a difference.
