There is a technical definition for bandwidth and the now bastardized definition. Yours is neither.

And yet, everyone who heard this understood my point, that bandwidth is not the end all of data transfer rates. The latency, which was commonly ignored, is a major component of many/most data transfer systems.

Not commonly ignored. Much work has been done in this area.
