CC-ing Dennis, the original submitter, and also Ping-Ke, who has done a lot of 6 GHz updates, for more information.

Please see the original submission [1], which explains why the power limit is so low. Basically, neither the database nor the kernel supports specifying power spectral density limits, so we can only take the narrowest bandwidth to calculate the applicable power limit.

And under LPI usage, the full 6GHz band (U-NII-5, 6, 7) is available.
