Because it wasn’t out yet? But they knew it was coming, so they made a stopgap. They knew they would eventually need a form of USB-c, so thunderbolt is right out.
It’s a devkit, it’s for technology that is out for when it comes out, maybe a decade later. They know what’s coming out ahead though, stuff is announced YEARS to decades ahead.
Of course I do, clearly you don’t… it is its own proprietary port, you need an adapter for usb-c. So you’re suggesting that they need to package adapters for it to work? Thats the whole point of usb-c, to get rid of them.
Also, as explained previously… not enough voltage, there is multiple limitations on that cable already as well….
You’ve shown to have zero knowledge here, why do you continue to insult and pester me because I’m trying to be civil and explain this to you?
The cables are compatible, but… that’s not how it works. Where did you get that information from?
A Thunderbolt 3 cable can transfer up to 40 Gbps, twice the maximum of USB-C. However, these speeds are only possible when using a Thunderbolt cable with a Thunderbolt port, not a USB-C port. This is because Thunderbolt 3 uses two lanes of PCIe 3.0 for data transfer, while USB-C uses one lane of PCIe 3.0 or two lanes of PCIe 2.0.
Enjoy your weekend walls are a more enjoyable conversation partner, maybe research stuff before spewing bullshit?
Right. The question is “why wouldn’t they use thunderbolt?” Stop being obtuse.
Voltage limitations…
I’m sorry, you’re calling me obtuse because you don’t know usb standards? That’s funny.
There’s obviously a Reason, and as explained, bandwidth or power limitations. All previous revisions, weren’t right.
…right so why didn’t they design their original embedded architecture to support the better technology?

Do you not know what thunderbolt is?

Thunderbolt is a protocol family carried over USB-C since version 3. Since 2015.

Yes, USB-C is the physical port standard over which thunderbolt is carried.
