That is like saying everyone is using floppy disks, why did Apple remove floppy disk drive. You will need to use dongle for a while but everyone moving to USB C/wireless is a good thing.

Mac is highly supported for pro audio, so you can hope. I'm certain that until pioneer, m-audio, etc. jump on board, they will lose consumers.

I am sure Apple must have thought of that before pulling the plug on USB A. The point is this is classic Apple move to let go old tech and embrace new.
