In this case, OP just had busted USB controllers. All USB-C ports are intended to be equivalent on MacBooks.
As an aside, the new imac has 4 usb-c ports: two are thunderbolt, two aren't.
Intended doesn't mean that they are. The left side is definitely better than the right, and they get really high CPU usage when charging/using their monitor with their right side USB ports instead of the left.
Yes, I know. I chose my words quite intentionally.
