The problem here is that a lot of people are on limited data plans. So if wifi is poor in one corner of my home, I dont want to accidentally chew up half my monthly data allowance.

This absolutely happened to me once, at work.

Which was really funny, because I was downloading craploads of music specifically before I left the office so I wouldn't chew up my mobile data cap.

I didn't know the "switch to 4G if the wifi is bad" option even existed, much less was enabled.
