Yep. The lack of a video input killed the thing for me, and, I suspect, thousands of other people. All it needed was a USB-C jack for power and video over DisplayPort.

This could have been a great device for gamers, 3-D modelers, drone pilots, cinematographers... but Apple's fear of I/O ruined it.

The problem is if the power cable comes out the machine cuts off and you are in complete darkness. Having a locking cable makes a lot of sense.
The input port could have been on the puck though. And it can switch to showing the surrounding environment when input is lost.
Not sure if that was intended to reply to my comment, but I never objected to having a locking cable.
