PCI Express on the Raspberry Pi 4
If a Pi is capable of this already, why not replace the Ethernet, charging, micro-HDMI, and USB ports with a boatload of type-C Thunderbolt ports (plus support for the HDMI 1.4 alt mode)? Would 8xUSB-C cost that much more than 1xUSB-C+1xEthernet+2xMicro-HDMI+2xUSB3+2xUSB2 (with no PCI Express), in exchange for a considerably more flexible device?
