It isn't. Even the upcoming Wi-Fi 7 will be a bottleneck for modern SSDs.

But the much bigger problem is interoperability between different devices and OSs for Wi-Fi transfers.

AirDrop is dead simple device to device adhoc wifi. If you're close enough to plug it in, you're close enough to have line of sight.
