Why is mirroring Android screen to PC via USB better than wireless?

The solution of projecting Android screen to PC via USB connection is often recommended because wireless connection often encounters the following problems:

• You cannot interact with the phone screen via PC. That means, you have to do the entire interaction on your phone and see what happens on the big screen. As such, you cannot use the computer keyboard to enter content on the phone.
• On a wireless network connection, lag is noticeable between the activity on the phone and the content displayed on the TV. Even being a little late is enough to cause problems, even annoy the viewers.
• If turning it off for a few seconds, reconnecting the Android monitor to the PC wirelessly usually fails. Occasionally, you have to close the app on both platforms for it to work again.
