Or was it the millions these companies dropped that made it happen?

I doubt you've heard of them. They're interested in unlicensed 6GHz for the indoor low power (WiFi6) usage. I'm certain they've dropped millions lobbying for this.

I feel like from a reliability standpoint it will be tough to count on a system that uses AFC in general. What about the Antenna being used on these APs are they going to be able to cover the entire band from 5Ghz to 6Ghz efficiently? Just thinking...

A Standard Power device, allowed +36 dBm EIRP, must communicate daily with an AFC that determines what frequencies are available at its location. It must have geolocation. (We are waiting to see the final Order to see how the "client AP" is handled.) The rules for the AFC are reasonably conservative, so the licensed PtP users are generally pretty happy with it. And a whole bunch of companies have already been working on AFCs. The Low Power Indoor device, on the other hand, does not require AFC. It is limited to indoor use only (must have mains power, may not be weatherproof, must be labeled) and is allowed +30 dBm EIRP (clients +24 dBm). Since those can use any frequency, the incumbents are a wee bit concerned. But between building entry losses (pretty high at 6 GHz) and the directionality of the FS dishes, harmful interference is unlikely. That is likely to be a volume market for Wi-Fi 6e. The higher-end business stuff, and ours, will be standard power. The FNPRM asks about Very Low Power outdoor operation without AFC. Like cell phones and small hotspots. It also asks about higher power for AFC-controlled devices."
