Ah the good old "if you are in favor of a government regulation, you ought to be in favor of all government regulations!" fallacy

By your own logic, you couldn't oppose the government forcing every GPU to have a VGA port, or every NVMe drive to have a sata port because hey do you also oppose standardizing 240v???



Thank you for making the perfect argument! My GPU does in fact have a VGA port. Also an HDMI, and a DisplayPort. See how that works ? The government does not mandate that there will be only one USBC port and nothing else. If you want to play with Thunderfire v5 Turbo Proprietary Edition, feel free to!

Just slap in a USBC too.


It may not be a technical problem could be a form factor problem. Lightening more than anything else is a great form factor. All the technical arguments ignore the fact the it's best features were not technical.
