That's why it's been normalized to buy five of those mesh WiFi routers and shove...

Having lots of lower powered routers is actually better for interference.

MacOS won't roam properly unless the signal from the connected AP drops below -75db, so cranking the power on all your APs will give you worse performance if you move around.

That's only on non-steered roaming though, right? I believe Apple devices have long supported AP/network-side steering.

Since most devices these days only transmit as strongly as they need to, this is actually great for spectrum sharing.
