Does anyone have any feedback on using a magnetic USBC connector with a thunderbolt 4 docking station ? Any good reference ?

Pretty much all magnetic usb-c connectors are power-only. If they have tx/Rx at all, not only would I not expect the connector to handle the loads associated with USB-PD, but I they straight up won't have the connectivity required for high speed thunderbolt.
