This is what we've wanted since USB first existed: a universal port—it's literally in the name. It's been 20 years in the making and now we finally have it.
The power issue is a minor temporary inconvenience. I did the same as OP and just got a bunch of cables from Cable Matters that cover basically everything. And the USB-C to USB 3.1 Type B on my hub means I don't have to change any desktop accessories. I just changed a single cable and it was compatible with my home setup.
The ability to "upgrade" an accessory just by switching from a 5Gbps cable to a 40Gbps cable is incredible.
Other manufacturers are already following. A year from now the fact that this was ever an issue will seem silly.
I just wish they would scrap Lightning and the 3.5mm and just go 100% USB-C.
