In the bathroom, our streaming speaker runs via Wi-Fi. The only user is me.
In the guest bathroom it also ran via Wi-Fi. No user -> I have now banished it to the hobby cellar.

The kids’ devices as well, by the way. (Of course, one can debate stationary/non-stationary here).
At first I also wanted to run everything via Wi-Fi until my brother-in-law convinced me to install double sockets in the 4 bedrooms and downstairs in the living room.

The end of the story... everything is on Wi-Fi except the TV in the living room and the two APs (ground floor/upper floor).

I immediately think of a smart mirror with a RaspberryPI...

It's similar for me... Bose box, Fire TV with TV, notebook, Chromecast, printer—all of them are on Wi-Fi.
Only the NAS is directly connected to the router.

Exactly, there's a Sonos hanging in the bathroom.

WLAN replaces LAN in 99% of cases. It runs just as fast and stable. Exception gaming and TV with UHD etc.

People don’t put telephone sockets in the rooms anymore either...

I agree: a device that is not used nomadically does not need to be mobile. You don't have to be a pathologically self-made grain eater to keep your self-generated electromagnetic smog in moderation against the background of how a "microwave" works. You mean a mirror that photoshops in real-time how you could look with enough sleep?
