I don't agree.
The network service runs reasonably well with WiFi,
though it is not as convenient as NM.

I hope not.
Occasionally NM does not work,
and it is vital (for me, at least) to have an alternative fall-back.

Most of the problems with NM arise from the lack of proper documentation.
I believe that a lack of documentation not only confuses users.
It can also cause confusion in the minds of developers.
