Perhaps the reason Apple didn't include an HDMI port is because Skylake CPUs only support [1] HDMI 1.4 which means you can't output anything at 4K @ 60 Hz. They could have used an LS-Pcon to convert DP 1.2 into HDMI 2.0, but that's not ideal.
Personally I think Apple made the right decision by dropping the HDMI port since the Thunderbolt 3 ports are far more flexible.
