You're not going to be able to change all those home routers now, so where would you put the Industrial, Scientific & Medical users now? Up at 5GHz?
No, the frequency doesn't need to change, just more channels need to be allocated above channel 12 specifically for business/industrial use.

I think we're correct in blaming residential users, most commercial networks are properly setup, whereas most residential are not.
