You can do both at once over the port, you'd just need a hub. It's not really the new "full powered" MacBook. Look at the processors it uses. It's intended to a a good performance, lightweight laptop. Realistically, they can't support 2 USB-C ports as it's unlikely it could support a full power draw on both ports (100W each).

> Realistically, they can't support 2 USB-C ports as it's unlikely it could support a full power draw on both ports (100W each). Its not uncommon for machines to have only one usb controller with multiple ports (i.e. a usb controller + hub which connects externally)

  But, with one controller you could run into problems if you had two high speed devices on both ports.

    You could make one port a USB 3.0 port.

      That would be too wide for the laptop.

USB-PD is all about negotiating power usage. There's no reason the MB would be required or even able to provide 100W of power out.
