Except the device inevitably ends up bigger and chunkier.

I don't see how that's so terrible. It would slightly phisically bigger (if that) but it wouldn't weight more and you wouldn't need to carry around a hub.

Of course it will weigh more, those ports and the boards to drive them weigh something.

If you're worried about 50-100gr then you should hit the gym my friend.

Also, that hub you'd have to carry around weighs more than just having the ports on the laptop.
