USB2.0 is due to removal of an extra controller (2.5G + 3.0) added to the regular AX86U.
Can do mesh. No reason it can't.
Other than that, this price is prob the new norm. Too many competitive routers selling @ pre pandemic prices.
$199 is fair. Just be aware Broadcom released second gen AX hardware (throughput advantages) and newer updated CPUs on TSMC 16nm.
Doubt the average household with 20-40 concurrent clients could even tell a difference.
Biggest real world difference is the 2.5G port. (for faster connections and or NAS).

Unless under $100 and hackable so I can log into vpn to stream from another country
Eero Pro has me spoiled with its performance
Asus standalone routers can be put into Mesh mode (Aimesh) when add additional standalone-routers. (i.e. often when you upgrade).
Plus, most dedicated mesh routers are built for ease-of-use/convenience/coverage, not for speed.

I'm not a fan of hopping the signal to other nodes, but tri band in wireless backhaul would be the easiest alternative if you cant wire a lan cable through the house.

Not sure if I would say slower, but it will bottleneck quicker with heavy use.
