> your home wifi threat actor is your neighbors kid playing with aircrack.

When working for an ISP it came up quite a few times that customers had extensive questions about security because they were genuinely worried about their ex-spouse spying on them. Even if they were all just "paranoid" in their specific cases (I wouldn't know), I think it's a fair concern. If all it takes is some googling and a bit of money to rent cloud GPU's, well, scorned lovers have done way more expensive and less effective things to cause damage or violate privacy.
