Orbi AC3000 or really AC1266?

Orbi appears to be deceptively labeled as a AC3000 router using the following math:

 

AC3000 (1733 + 866 + 400Mbps)

 

However the end user portion of that is only this part:

 

(866 + 400Mbps) = 1,266 Mbps

 

Shouldn't this really be labeled as an AC1266 router, since the 1733Mbps band can't be used for anything except satellite to satellite communication?

 

Gotta love marketing folks

in reality it should be advertised as 867M as that is the highest attainable sync with any one connected client
