OWE enhances privacy in public and enterprise environments where open
networks are prevalent. Enabling OWE aligns with modern security best
practices and supports the testing and development of OWE-capable
devices.

OWE is now standardized in IEEE Std 802.11-2024 while it was originally
specified in IETF RFC 8110 (updated by RFC 9672). It is not experimental
anymore, i.e., there has been significant interoperability testing and
there are deployed cases.
