I don’t think you’re being imaginative enough.
People break USB ports all of the time, and ruin DisplayPort ports because they’re a locking connector.
Also, USB-C. The combination of video, power and data transfer that any laptop supports is up to the manufacturer, so it’ll fit but will it do what you need?

- upon_drumhead 2y agoIt's doubly not obvious because not all Display Port connectors are locking. For example: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CY3W7PG3 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CY3W7PG3
