2016 Retina MacBook Pro Caveats

The cable is a USB-C cable, but not a Thunderbolt 3 cable. This is confusing, because they use the same USB-C port. My understanding is that Thunderbolt cables have the thunderbolt logo on them.

It's not a Thunderbolt issue. It's about supporting "DisplayPort Alternate Mode." This particular monitor doesn't support Thunderbolt.
