In some respects this is simpler than the current scheme. You don't have the SuperSpeed+ Gen 2x1 and Gen 1x2 variations, which are both the same X Gbps nominal

In some respects this is simpler than the current scheme. You don't have the SuperSpeed+ Gen 2x1 and Gen 1x2 variations, which are both the same X Gbps nominal speed, except one uses an older less efficient encoding than the other and is measurably slightly slower in practice
