In places where it does exist, this wont be the case for long. Telephone lines are facing obsolescence and at first you're going to see them stop being used, and then you're likely to stop seeing structures being built with them.
And in places where it does not already exist, such as lesser developed parts of the world, the only connection available would be a wireless one, where neither a dedicated connection nor transport to a qualified hospital is an option.
Facing obsolescence, yet here we are discussing how much we need exactly that technology that we're going to abandon. And will spend enormous resources trying to band-aid it on top of an infrastructure that was not designed to support it.
I agree with you. I just don't understand why we let technology develop on this curious path tangential to our actual needs.
