      Absolutely true, there are some real world scenarios where fiber has the advantage

      • Low/No electromagnetic interference
        • Radio labs
        • MRI techs
        • (audiophiles? maybe)
      • Low latency, long distance
        • The source computer can me many meters/km away
      • All in one device
        • One fiber pair can run the full KVM stack for a remote computer

      But yeah, for most scenarios, conventional cables are fine, —
