The other reason for me to think that di2 is dead is again the wires... wires are old tech, think about a wired PM versus current ones, which will you buy?
Also just how we evolved from using an ethernet cable to wifi?! Nobody in their right might will ever go back to needing to be hooked up to the ethernet cable to get internet... we all want wireless and etap gives you that!
Not too long from now, people going to look at wired di2 the same way people look at mech shifting! Lol it's in our nature to go wireless if that wasnt the case then we wouldn't mind having all of our wires hanging out on our cockpit
On the track wired SRMs are still king. If you think that WiFi has anything on a good wired connection, then you're neither in IT nor are you a gamer.
Shimano doesn't do things by halves. Di2 is easy to set up, reliable, available, proven, and supported (how many firmware updates for eTap so far?). The fact that you need the blipbox for the eTap TT setup shows they don't have it all figured out yet.
