> One USBC male to Two USBC female

What are you gonna do with the “alternate modes” (DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, etc)? You can indeed split the USB side into two ports by acting as a hub, but alternate modes can’t be split so easily.

What would you do with incoming power? Only one of the two female ports would be able to accept power from a charger.

> USBC male to dual HDMI plus any way to power, no such thing.

You can’t split the DisplayPort alternate mode into two separate outputs.
