It was easier for consumers to know what they were getting with TB1/2, or FW400/FW800 because they all used different connectors. People then proceeded to complain and say, "why don't they all just used USB-C", so that's what manufactures are doing, now people are complaining they all use the same connector.

For anyone not doing specialty high bandwidth data transfer tasks, all you really need is USB3.1/USB4.1 (same thing, for some really, STUPID reason...).
