DP is royalty free. Why are they looking for “yet another standard”

Power delivery with higher bandwidth than USB?

[-] Jyek@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 months ago

DP doesn't do power delivery and DP over thunderbolt doesn't deliver enough power for a display alone.

That last one isn’t entirely true. I have a portable monitor that does DP-Alt over USB-C and it is powered and driven via a single cable.
