Yeah man I agree on mesh network stuff but LoRa is just garbage for anything more than signalling, which again was it's purpose. Not data transfer.

The biggest thing is the radios are best described as "multiplexed, half duplex". The radio can only be in a single state at any given time, which also has delays. It also needs to be reset to idle state to clear registers after every (tx event i believe). It's just not efficient in my opinion if you actually sit down to write system level code for it, let alone monitoring power draw and delay times which cause missed preambles.
