It wasn't marketed as MagSafe, just as a magnetic connector. And why not? Magnetic connectors are awesome.
Also, putting the power brick on the floor and extending it so you can route ethernet up to the desk via a single cable is a nice idea. I hope that is a hit with customers and they expand it to other systems (namely MBP) in the future, I wouldn't mind having a couple USB-C ports down there too.
