At the highest quality setting, the iPhone 14 Pro captures video footage that is 6 GB per minute. At USB 2.0 speeds, files can be transferred at around 3.6 GB per minute. Typical wifi direct/Airdrop speeds are about 3-5 GB per minute. And thunderbolt speeds are 100 times faster, at 5 GB/s or 300 GB/minute.

For some purposes that USB 2.0 speed would be a significant bottleneck. It's up to the buyer to decide whether those use cases are likely.
