Usb 1.1 came out in like 1994, I still use it for keyboards and mice, ie the main thing I plug in to my pc. USB 2.0 came out around 1999, that covers most everything else.

Usb 3 is from 2009 or so, most of us don't bother with them except for storage because they're overspecced otherwise and usb 2 is cheaper.

Usb 4 will be fine in 2040 unless something weird happens, we'll still be using usb 2.0 because the cables are cheaper and more flexible than 3.0, we'll just call it "USBx4.2 base profile"
