I think we can blame the mass emulation of Apple products by others for this phenomenon. Since Jobs/Ive would never make such a design, neither will the other major laptop firms.

Macbooks go way too far with this now. I'm typing this on a 2014 base model MBP that has both 1x HDMI, 2x miniDP and 2x USB 3 ports.

On the 2020 M1 MBP, you get 2 USB ports, and that's it! And they have to handle power, display AND headphones!

Apple hasn't removed the headphone jack from any of their laptops.
