    It’s not like the power port is power only, or even only power or accessory. It can do both at the same time.

      It cannot do both at the same time. That is demonstrably untrue. It’s either a power port or it’s a data port and if it’s been a power port then it is by definition not a data port.

        I’m not sure why you think that’s untrue, but it is true. I literally have a dock that provides power to my laptop, as well as connecting it to my monitors, keyboard, mouse, etc. all over one USB type C cable.
