They tossed a port they really needed to keep: ethernet
Not with the latest version, Ethernet was gone several revisions ago. Most people really don't need it. I generally only use it at work, and leave the dongle connected to the Ethernet cable, so it's no harder to plug in than connecting the cable itself.
you must re-dongle the USB port (and you'd better hope you have some kind of mega-wire-spider so you can feed it power at the same time... and connect your USB stuff... and connect an external HDMI monitor...)
The idea is that you'll just have one cable coming from your monitor, providing power and a USB hub. Currently you can only get that with Thunderbolt from an Apple display, but a number of display manufacturers have signed up to do the same with USB-C. I'd love to be able to have a single cable to connect power, ethernet, display, keyboard and mouse to my laptop. About the only place where I connect more than one cable is at my own desk. I generally have to carry a dongle for projectors, because in most places they're VGA only (if you give a talk at Apple, they have an impressive array of adaptors connected to their projectors, for every display connector that Apple has ever sold. I really wished I'd lugged a G4 PowerMac tower with me to be able to use the ADC adaptor).
