I would have preferred that, but it wasn't a deal breaker. I ruled out an Apple LG 5K because it wouldn't have been able to connect with my PCs 1080 (I assume?) Also, my 1080 cannot really even handle 4K gaming, so I didn't see much point.
The MacBook has been perma-attached to the monitor due to the pandemic, so plugging power in via a different port on the MB was fine.
