The only downside with DP is just devices that actually have that versus HDMI / Mini hdmi.

This post though has made me annoyed as DP is clearly the better standard.

Agree with you there. I'd be much happier if my Raspberry Pis, cheap USB-C hubs, cheap monitors, etc. all had DP instead of HDMI.

It's extra annoying when you realize that you're paying more for royalties and sometimes additional hardware (e.g. in a USB-C hub that uses DP internally but converts to HDMI for the output) just to get an inferior interface.

Honestly, it's going to be one of those things I champion now whenever it comes up in conversation haha. Very solid points.
