I appreciate that I can use a faster charging barrel jack at home and a USB-C charger any where else I go (work for example).  I have used the USB-C and A ports concurrently without a space issue.  Pure USB charging makes me nervous as I have worn out USB connectors and cables many a time with phones.  I know USB-C is supposed to be better at avoiding the worn connector issue...but...we will see.
