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.

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.
