Because I value uptime. I don't want my garbage PC that runs PiHole to crash and totally take down the network.
I have many hardwired devices, they may not.
I need two APs as I live in an older house and I get crappy reception in my basement. I also want a guest and IoT network so I chose to use VLANs to segregate, which requires switching and APs that can do that.
Yes, if you do this all the time (I do too) it's not that hard. But it's certainly not a beginner project.
