The similar netgear router is 548.99 currently on amazon with a 600$ retail price tag
consumers realize they offer no real benefits for their premium price.
even the quad core cpu is a joke as mostly the first 2 cores are used.
there are plenty of great 2,3,4 puck router:mesh systems you can buy
that are a far better way to spend a $300 budget on a AC/wifi5 system.
if i had $334 burning a hole in my pocket, i'd buy two asus ac2900's
and mesh one to the other - you can cover a mini mansion with that.

Good advice always starts with identifying the needs. Bad advice always starts with telling you what you'll never need without having any clue about your workload.
The more devices you connect and the more data streams you get going, the more you're going to need a beefier cpu. But again, *your* use-case is probably too light to need this.
And maybe *for you* that would be true. However, you have no clue what other peoples needs are. Similarly, it's like you telling everyone they'd never need a Chevy Silverado 2500, and basing it on the fact that a Nissan Frontier does a great job towing a couple of jetskis and basic camping gear.

I've neither said nor implied people should invest in an ax router if their only intent is to use ac gear. And, it's stupid to assume people are only (going to be) using ac equipment with these routers. It's as if some people handing out advice are completely ignorant to the fact that there are devices available right now that support ax, and that ax adapters are readily available. WIFI6 is not some unicorn, though some here would have you think otherwise.
As far as wave 2.. What exactly do you think is going to change between now and 6 months from now? These wave 1's are 95%+ of the way there. What few things are missing will be addressed with a firmware update once everything is "official". Although, waiting another 6 months should get you better pricing, which is always a plus.
