Techno-utopians tend to ignore the fact that technology adoption is fundamentally driven by labor and economics. Large chunks of the world have wireless internet but minimal electricity and water, (much less fiber-optic broadband) because economics favors cellular over centralized infrastructure ala Bell, Westinghouse, and Edison.

One key plot conflict of the setting is that Galactic Empires/Republics are too big to support much in the way of innovation. Which is also a feature of a fair number of Galactic Government fiction from Foundation to Dune.
