I just bought a couple of cables that support basically everything, and that’s it.
They connect to everything, they charge everything, they are interchangeable, and they don’t bottleneck.
Granted, I do not care about video and sound. To me, those are only needed for plug-once-and-forget devices, so DP/XLR/etc make sense. Data and charging, however? Yeah, USB-C is so much better than what he had to deal with, despite the standard being kind of a mess.
