The top reasons that come to mind right away are:
(1) Range. How close can you tolerate? It's not going to go very far in
a PMP environment. Maybe a few hundred yards. If there are trees, forget
about it.
(2) Modulation. Don't expect something in that frequency to be doing
higher level modulations. Because you can run ginormous channels, maybe
not a big deal, but I wouldn't count on it.
(3) Costs. Getting things to run at that frequency would probably
require higher end components.

What am I missing here?
Can't Cambium and UBNT and others simply overlay the same radio
architecture/software they have developed over a decade, on top of a 60GHz
radio instead of 5Ghz?
Is there some fundamental problem with using the same PHY later protocols on
60GHz vs 5GHz?
