Counterpoint…if you’re so regularly using a dock, you should probably just be using a desktop. And yes, I know a lot of employers assign employees laptops and then tell them to work hybrid and not have an office to give them. (I won’t accept “devices should be stupid because bosses are stupid” lol)
You can still use a dock and have enough ports though. You don’t lose the ability to use a dock just because you have extra ports, lol
Ehhhh, your “counterpoint” would apply to a laptop that has all the ports too though. If you’re plugging so many things into it regularly, then maybe you should just have a desktop instead of a laptop full of ports. But honestly, I don’t think it’s a very strong counterpoint either way.
When I worked in an office space before getting to work from home, having a dock was super handy for being able to take my laptop to meetings where I needed to access info or take meeting notes. I had multiple meetings like that per day so unplugging and plugging everything in before/after every meeting would have sucked. My work laptop is a Thinkpad with all the ports as well, but I only ever used the USB-C port to connect to the dock at my desk.
