Note that 3 of those came about long after M.2 was done, and Mini-PCIe/mSATA existed before all of them. Apple's commitment to standard hardware is at best skin deep. People were quite upset to have lost their ports in 2016 too. 5 years later Apple added some back.

> People were quite upset to have lost their ports in 2016 too. 5 years later Apple added some back. it's always funny when usb-c (vs lightning, usb-a, etc) discussions come up, because there's very much people in favor of doing away with everything except USB-C (by government decree/fiat if necessary) but many of these individuals also seem to hate the usb-c only macbooks, despite those being the richest implementation of the concept to date. not just usb-c everything, but thunderbolt everything, with full capability on all ports, full-speed charging on all ports, etc. "no, not like that!"
