The primary value still seems to be "more capacity" and "higher speeds." It's similar to the value of fiber to home or DOCSIS 4.0: more capacity; faster speed. In many ways, greater capacity is a "hygiene" issue: what one has to do to remain relevant in business and sustain the business.
So far, at least, there has been precious little adoption, at scale, of new use cases and features. The advantages of sensor device density or lower latency have yet to be embraced, for example.
It might grate, but the value of 5G is that it supports a more-capable (faster) "dumb pipe." That is to be expected when a permissionless app architecture is in place.
