This post is actually so stupid, they didn’t take shit from us, it’s still right there.

It's not. it's quite visibly not there.

USB-A/B is very outdated.

I take it you are offering to provide me with the adapters needed for all my USB-A devices, and my square-USB printers, for free? Because your mouth certainly runs well oiled.

USB-C can be used to deliver audio, video, ethernet connection, etc. You didn’t lose any functionality. Worst case scenario you’d need a hub for the card readers or a usb to usb-c adapter, or ethernet to usb-c.

Worst case scenario is if you have one sole USB-C connector and it breaks or is damaged. You'd lose all the eggs you had in one basket, whereas with separate adequate connectors you'd at least get to keep some workflow.
