Not why the FCC cares but WiFi systems stop broadcasting if they can even slightly hear another broadcaster on the channel. If everyone broacasts as loud as possible WiFi speeds would be absolutely awful. So to get good speeds everyone should ideally broadcast as quietly as possible. This is one of the reasons for 5ghz WiFi: the propagation distance is terrible.
