It is pretty flexible. But ethernet, displayport, 3.5mm, etc require an adapter. Plus, usb-c’s bandwidth is typically 40gbps max, whereas DisplayPort is 80gbps, for example. Not to mention that the number of ports is way lower than it used to be.
Sure, but that’s not a common scenario anymore. We have wifi that is faster than most client Ethernet installations, and if you’re at a desk anyways you probably want a dock. I suppose there is the network engineer who needs to plug directly into various switches and such, but if that’s your debug mechanism, well I am very sorry, look into remote management options to make your life so much easier.

Ethernet goes down USB C, 3.5 is built into the computer and Deck.
My point was that you require a physical adapter. You can’t plug in an RJ45 into a USB-C port.
You can’t plug it into a USB-A port either. Checkmate.
