Not necessarily true. 2.4Ghz bands still exist because they can reach further due to the size of the wave length. For example, in my home I can connect to both bands in my bed room, but the 2.4Ghz is faster because of the way the technology works.

Yes, when 2.4GHz got interference, 5GHz will pickup if you are close to router. 5GHz is fast, but the downside is valid for short distance.
