If they just made a HomePod that also worked as a WiFi router I’d buy the shit out of it.

I partially agree with you. The problem is that the wifi router requires an Ethernet cable to connect to the modem which limits where you can put it.

What would be cool is to have a base station that’s just a router (maybe with HomePod functionality), but then add-on mesh network hotspots that work as HomePods. These would be a lot more flexible for placement.
