On one hand, my xps at work goes through to a dock that uses usb-c/tb3, everything goes through to the dock and nothing except the connector to my laptop. I get why they only had so little usb-c ports. I hope it wasn't as a decision to look "minimal" and thus less practical, meaning they took little is more a bit too literally. Thing is, to take my work laptop home, I don't want to have to shell out for a dock just to use it at home too so on that hand, I'm happy the xps gives me options to not have to be reliant on a dock, as much as I love the use of a dock at work.
