    Both USB-C and USB-A have their pros and cons.

    • USB-C has a lot more bandwidth and power draw.

    • USB-A is sturdier and cheaper.

    For things like a mouse or keyboard, having more bandwidth or power draw are useless, but being cheaper and sturdier are not.

    One can not replace the other entirely. Apple just wants to milk everyone by forcing them to buy all their peripherals again.
