In my opinion 2.4GHz is rapidly becoming a non-starter. Companies like Eero, TP-Link, and Spectrum are using 40Mhz wide swaths of 2.4GHz for their Mesh backhauls. Sitting in my home office in a single family detached home, I can see 24 different SSIDs all running 40mhz on the 2.4GHz band with 7 having a signal strength greater than -80dBm.
5Ghz doesn't propagate very far and putting IoT devices inside your home on 5Ghz makes a lot of sense. With 6Ghz coming on line and being reserved for high bandwidth applications, 5Ghz for IoT makes even more sense.
