I think this is a pretty safe assumption In the United States and some
portions of the western world, but not a good assumption in a lot of
other places.
The question in my mind is:
If you never have a high bandwidth connection to the backup server,
does the automatic homedir backup concept make sense?
Maybe it does, but it's certainly more of a challenge to make it work
well in such circumstances, so I'd think of that as something to
be looked at later, rather than a primary use case.
