These people need to be shown one or more of these threads. Sure, we make money on running wiring, but more importantly, we cannot do the job we want to do: give the customer what they need -- without doing it right, and it is, if you'll forgive the word, stupid to rely on wireless.
They are even foregoing the impossible goal of futureproofing. We've all been there -- some new technology is touted as THE solution, with "forever" clearly implied. Even with wiring, nobody saw HDMI coming early enough to put in ten years' worth of conduit to run it in when it finally was invented.
Actually, we should all be freaked out that we don't install 1 1/4" conduit everywhere, and EMT at that. The last twenty years have had cabling that required at least 1" tubing. With HDMI, we at first ran HDMI cabling, but then that became obsolete!
These people are making such bad, bad mistakes.

A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
