The only place I ever plug anything besides a power cord into my macbook is at my desk, where there's a usb-c hub that has power, an external monitor, a USB mouse, a USB keyboard, and another open USB A port on it. I plug that single thing into my macbook and my entire workstation is plugged in. It's way less of a hassle than you're making it out to me.


Great, it works for your use case. Not everyone does that, not everyone has the same requirements as you.

When i goto offices not setup for USBC and need to plug in power, monitor and ethernet?

At a conference and i want to do external display, power and my cellphone to charge it & tether?

With my 2015 i'll often (and easily) plug in 3-5 things at once when not at home (there i have a macmini)


Now try doing that with a 4k monitor at 60Hz. You can’t.
