The actual announcement from USB.org [1], I had to go to official source just to make sure this wasn't a joke or prank. Why didn't they just include it with USB4? It wasn't that long ago. But then I checked on Wiki, [2] turns out it has been three years since the release of USB4 spec 1.0. I am not even sure if there are that many USB4 motherboard / laptop on the market. I still mostly see USB3.x labels. And USB4 v2, at 80Gbps will be faster than Thunderbolt 4. This reminded me of Anadntech's [3] discovery of "Thunderbolt 5" and "USB 80G". So will the next version be called Thunderbolt 4 v2? If not, why not just call this new 80Gbps USB ( likely many changes in PHY ) USB5?
