The article also ignores that many of these USB issues are actually solvable in software (both uEFI and in the OS).

The only USB issue which REALLY isn't solvable is the fact that USB devices can simulate a USB hub and then attach fictional human interface devices (i.e. keyboards and mice) which they can then use to take over the computer and or otherwise cause problems.

Well you could build a system which requires explicitly allowing HIDs. The only HID for which it's a serious issue might be a keyboard, and for those the OS could segregate the alleged keyboard and require specific actions to allow it.
