It seems we are pretty well settled on the fact that on a good laptop, all usb C ports should be capable of all features. And then on a hub, you can expect the usb-c port to be charging pass through and nothing more. All other ports on the hub work as you would expect.

I wouldn't ever expect to see a hub where the usb-c ports pass on the full thunderbolt capabilities.

Thunderbolt is specifically designed to permit daisy chaining (unlike USB). So it's actually quite normal for a device to pass Thunderbolt through to another, as well themselves being a Thunderbolt device.
