What, you haven’t spent a fortune on thunderbolt docks to fix the limited number of ports yet, shame on you!
More ports is better. It blew my mind when the 2018 Mac Mini had 6 USB. I was thinking maybe Apple was off its rocker. When I built my last PC, I picked a motherboard with 8, yes 8 USB 3.1 ports (mix gen 1&2 and type C), with an addition 4 USB2.0 ports. Do I use them all, all of the time no, but I do have a minimum of 7 in use at all times, mice, keyboard, external RAID array, card reader, external backup drives, a 900w UPS. You get the idea.
