You may be right, and I've had to live some of that myself with docking stations, thunderbolt, and such.

But those moments are the exceptions. In my everyday life, when I need to charge _anything_, except maybe for the laptop itself, I just look for a charger with USB-C and it works. It maybe faster or slower depending on everything you just wrote, but it works.

On a side-note, when I take the charger of my laptop, it can charge absolutely everything.

So yes, that's a true and honest improvement.

If you add data, it's even worse... does the cable do thunderbolt? USB 3.0? Or just 2.0? There's no way to know and the cable still fits
