I agree, I never want to see a proprietary apply power adapter ever again, especially given their history of disintegrating within a year or two.
Charge ports on either side fix a real pain point for me - all my workspaces happen to have power on the right hand side.
Also, if you need the safety of magsafe, you can get magnetic-connect usb-C cables, where the usb 'stub' fits into the female port, but connects magnetically to the rest of the cable.
