The FM stereo sampling rate is 38 Khz. You can get frequency response up to about 40% of this i.e. 15 Khz.

The problem is the low output power, prevalence of other
signals on FM, and generally poor transmitter (device)
quality to make it cheap. If one were to spend a lot on a
high quality transmitter, at that point they might as well
just go digital. Seems a high expense to avoid a 10' wire,
especially when there are also emerging audio devices that
can use wifi to transmit which have now dropped under $50.

You are correct. IMHO that is not appreciably worse.
