Higher speeds automatically means less latency and that does matter, especially if you are into stuff like games where every millisecond matters.

I think the point is that these numbers are theoretical, and only reachable in a lab. So in practice you do not really benefit.

old wifi already have sub 1ms latency, it doesn't matter to be any faster than that
That's not really how latency works though.
