Do you still hang onto that old VCR because DVD players won't play your tapes and it'd be a waste to throw that VCR away?
At some point we have to upgrade if we want to stay current. This is the same with any technology, not just USB-C.

I just bought a brand new (released 2019) audio interface, connects with USB-A
In fact, besides my recent 2018 external SSD which came with an interchangeable USB-A/C port, none of my newer devices are USB-C
So, this is more like... I've got my VCR and a DVD player, and all the new movies are only coming out on VHS
Edit: I'll add to this - it's also frustrating not having any other ports on the MBP as well. I recently had surgery and was bedridden for a while, and the nest of cables I needed for ethernet, HDMI, mouse, etc.. was insane. Normally it's not a huge deal, but there's a lot of factors that have been making me regret not getting a Razer Blade when I was deciding between the two.
I probably won't be buying another Apple laptop.
Right now, it’s like throwing out your VCR and all VHS movies when DVD just came on the market and there’s barely any movies released on DVD yet. Did anybody with a sizeable VHS collection throw them away the day DVD arrived?
It’s too soon for “USB-C only” - at least for me - it would mean constant need for all kinds of dongles.
