There's a list of 802.3 standards at https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.3, if anyone's curious to see the development and future of ethernet. Some of the numbers involved are absolutely crazy.

I have how long 1Gb stuck along. >1Gb switches are still relatively expensive

I agree, I’m replacing 1Gb switches with 1Gb switches this replacement cycle. 2015 switches with 30w PoE+ being replaced by basically the same thing but with a different OS. I thought we would be to 2.5Gb and 45 or 60w PoE at the price point of those last generation early 2010’s switches by now.
