Given the fact the communication infrastructure is super deployed (wi fi everywhere, networks everywhere), why would I want to actually move my server ? I mean, the client moves and the network infrastructure make sure the server is reachable anytime anywhere... So why would I want to move it ?

There are use cases when latency becomes a factor. For example: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1063715

There are still plenty of places with no WiFi is available, i.e. marine and farming environments (the areas I work in). So I could see this being used as an IoT hub. But I'd rather just use a Rpi.
