    The Apples of this generation pictured all support DisplayPort alt mode, and Thunderbolt 3, through those USB-C ports. That means that you could use passive USB-C to DP cables that didn’t need active translation in the cable/adapter itself.

      Precisely, you need to use an adapter and you’re already down a significant % of ports just plugging in a monitor. The ports in lots of laptop models are a joke and it’s baffling that more people aren’t laughing.
