With a laptop the two most common use-cases are "mobile"
where you are
working unplugged/mobile with the laptops's keyboard and pointing device,
and
more stationary situations where you are plugged in to mains and may have
access to a network jack, so many users won't need wifi and bluetooth at the
same time.
Wired ethernet ports are effectively deprecated on any modern laptop.
My entire four building complex is wireless only. My parent's condo
building is the same way.
Where I work, there is no wifi but iMacs are purchased with
bluetooth mouse and keyboard. With a bunch of systems in a cubicle farm,
bluetooth is not reliable, so users switch to USB mouse and keyboard.
Wired keyboard is fine, it's rather stationary. But having reliably
used an Apple Magicmouse on macOS for years, there is no way I'd ever
go back to a wired mouse. I'd go so far as to use Windows if the only
other alternative was to go to a wired mouse.
