If you have a 6E / 6GHz capable client, a 6E router will help a lot with interference. The 6GHz band is new enough that its not likely to be crowded.

However, since its so new, you're unlikely to have a 6GHz capable client... There are 6Ghz capable PCIe cards (desktop and M.2 form factors), but I haven't seen any 6Ghz wifi USB adapters.

I have a new Wifi6 in my laptop, but obviously dual band. I’m considering hardwiring into the nod which will be wirelessly connected to the mesh, but that may solve all issues.

That's the tricky thing. Wifi6 is not the same as 6E. The "E" means its capable of operating in the 6GHz band.
