Can't say I fully agree, at all, especially for a ph that doesn't support simultaneous dual-band/radio or 802.11AC.

You do realise that to use this fabled optical link, the primary part of the ph would need the ability to "transmit" optically, right?
And as the official specs of the phone don't list this capability, & as they're not likely to, your idea makes little sense.
And that's not even getting into the fact that I've never heard of such a BUS for mobile SoCs, have you?

Exchange with Jolla on Twitter, still none the wiser ofc, lets just hope their "eyes are wide open":
