I think we are quite a long time from 6E becoming congested. The equpiment is just too expensive right now (nevermind the price of Wifi 7 equipment). In my pretty densely populated area I have zero other 6GHz networks visible from my place.
I don’t think we’ll ever hit 6ghz congestion because it just doesn’t go very far.
In downtown areas 2.4ghz wifi is basically useless, but 5ghz is still pretty serviceable thanks to it’s lower range and more channels. 6ghz is just another 2.4 to 5ghz jump, but now we’re getting down to single room levels of range.

There were so few 6E devices released, particularly consumer level ones that we can sort of just “skip” it when talking about home user Wifi issues.
