I do have gigabit fiber.
On my Xbox I often don't get around to pre-ordering games and there is limited disk space so if I want to play a old game I have to wait again.

A bigger harddrive for your xBox would cost less than the Stadia controller.
Only if you dont factor in the cost of the xbox. If buying from scratch stadia would be cheaper.

There are many simple solutions for that which cost less than the founder's edition.
And, if I'm a little bit snarky, you can't exactly play those old games on Stadia either.
Hey me too (albeit 100mbit) and I've gotten my Stadia and been playing tomb raider with it and it works great so I wouldn't worry about it.
Unless you have (particularly good) fiber, this probably won't happen. The bandwidth requirements are too high.

FWIW, all of the current generation consoles (even the Switch) have a standby mode that will let them patch your games while you're not playing, meaning that in most cases when you go to play, you can immediately play. They'll even download pre-ordered games without your input.
The only time you would need to be concerned about download times is when you're purchasing a new game for the first time. That's typically a one-time event per game.
