For me, and for nearly everyone I know, thinness is far more functional than an ethernet port. As is weight, a pound is actually a lot!<p>Ethernet ports are easy to add as a dongle, you can&#x27;t do the same with thinness. I really only need ethernet in fixed locations, and where there I already have power, and that&#x27;s the case for most people.<p>It&#x27;s totally cool that you have different needs, but it&#x27;s not cool to misascribe that to &quot;looks.&quot;
