toslink was cutting edge in, oh, 1985. Bit on the limited side for bandwidth now.

You're not wrong, but if it has the bandwidth for stereo 24 bit 96kHz lossless digital then why does it matter? The main problem is it gets the clock rate or whatever from the signal itself making it susceptible to jitter, but I think modern devices mitigate that.
