The examples you gave -- USB1, PS2, serial -- are legacy ports. Nowadays, the vast majority of computers do not have any of these. USB3 on USB-C and Thunderbolt have replaced them. Yes USB2/3 steps down to USB1 speeds in most cases, but there are issues sometimes where it doesn't work and you actually have to replace the obsolete equipment or keep an old-style computer around. Yes, serial is sometimes used on old routers/switches which means you might need an adapter if you buy new equipment.
You seem very upset. Do you feel threatened by new things? Step off the amphetamines please.
