Alternatively, any old existing usb3 hub plus usb-a to usb-c adapters will give you a lot more flexibility.

I finally went ahead & bought a decent quantity of adapters- they're tiny, cheap, and add lots of flexibility. They have helped me consolidate my cable collection significantly while retaining a bunch of charging devices I already had installed.

Once you start trying to layer in usb-pd things get much much more complex. But, as a bus for peripherals, longstanding usb hubs do more than fine.
