@thecreativeone91 They'll all require way more amps than the USB3 standard provides, but they all get the amps on the same pins - victory is ours!

I almost never use two USB ports at the same time now, so how does this matter to me or many other people?

Even more than people that use more than one at a time, the people that have USB hubs is such a small number that for mass market I would ignore that segment.

When at my desk with my laptop I have a USB hub connected when traveling I don't need one as I leave the mouse etc. behind.
