>There are 4 USB-C ports anyway.

Only if you buy any MacBook Pro configuration with the touchbar. If you want normal F-keys, you're limited to 2 ports because "fuck you," I guess.

Is "fuck you" a euphemism for "you're buying a computer that costs $500 less and as a result probably doesn't have the internal hardware to support 4 separate USB-C ports"?

2 more USB ports costs an extra $500? It's strange because a $15 USB hub plugged into the USB ports works fine. It must be lack of internal space due to not including a touchbar... Wait that doesn't make sense either...
