Why aren’t motherboards mostly USB-C by now?

Would make much sense. You still want USB-A ports for most peripherals as using an usb-c port to connect a single mouse would be pretty much wasting a port.
However adding a Thunderbolt4 port or two along side the usual USB-A ports would be nice.
Ofcourse you'd still want some type a ports, but I have 6 type a ports and a single type c on my rear io but i would definitely give up 1 or 2 a ports for 2 more type c.
Why not half and half? Then I can afford to both keep my current accessories, and to buy USB-C when I need to replace them
I'd only need 2 extra since I got dual a and dual c on my case front io aswell.
And since most devices i plug in are still type i can't sacrifice too many.
