I don't quite get the USB port issue... the MBP has 4 of them. They're type-C, but that's the direction all consumer electronics are headed in. All of my daily gear is USB-C now. It's a much more capable port in general. And for legacy USB gear, you can either just swap out for a C-to-B cable, or get a small C-to-A dongle if the cable isn't removable. I'd much rather have the extra type-C ports, myself.
