If you're thinking of the USB-C PD input being 5v/5A, that's not a spec violation, just a bit of an extreme use of the more recent version of the standard.

It would be nice if it were higher voltage/lower amperage, but it works at least with their own power adapter through a few clever tricks.

For WPA3, it is what it is... most SBCs have 'middling at best' built-in WiFi, and while the driver support can improve, I typically stick to external or M.2 PCIe WiFi chips if I need something more robust. (Hopefully a WiFi HAT will make its way to the market with Intel AX210 or something like that).

Ah yes, that one was pretty silly. Partly due to not spreading out alpha test hardware wide enough to catch a more obvious bug like that. Also up there with 'don't take pictures of the Pi 2, the camera flash will reboot it' :)
