Are there even computers with 6GHz but no WPA3 if "WPA3 or bust" is part of the 6GHz spec as you said?

Sounds to me like if something doesn't support WPA3, it also doesn't support 6GHz which makes the point moot.

The problem is that if you enable 6GHz on an existing 2.4/5 GHz SSID, you immediately kick off all WPA2 devices. So you have to create a unique SSID for 6GHz devices to use, which is kinda confusing to end users.
It also makes it harder to roam between 6/5/2.4 networks.
