For me, ports are not an issue. I am rarely using any plug-in devices when away from a desk, and there are numerous USB-C hubs that provide charging, USB 3.0 A-type sockets, SD card readers, ethernet ports, HDMI and DVI connectors, yadda yadda.
You do not need to buy a dozen Apple dongles, just one USB-C dock/hub/whatever, with the ports that you regularly use. Have one on your desk with monitor, drives, keyboard, mouse, network all connected so you only plug in one cable.
When you go on the road you might want a dock with HDMI so you can plug in to various displays. But you won't need a dozen dongles. Just a hub.
It is just a slightly different way of working rather than plugging all the cables into the laptop and having a huge clumsy mess.
