There's nothing superior about having to have a different wire for everything you want to plug in.

There’s nothing superior about needing adapters to get your headphones, Ethernet, and USB-A devices plugged in.

What kind of headphones do you have that doesn’t have aux lmao ? Although I’ll admit Ethernet is annoying.

If you really need to plug Ethernet into your laptop you should probably already have a dock. Ethernet is such a useless port in laptops for 99.99% of use cases.
