This may be controversial, but i think Lightning was a better port than USB-C. (Speaking purely from a physical design perspective, not functionally.)
@rowan_johnson Rack mounting doesn't affect me at all but totally get the point.
The power button is fine in practice, but it doesn't mean that I still can't call it out as total form over function. I'd still rather have it somewhere actually accessible.
@ravi as someone who owns three Mac minis, and all three live in a rack, I am mildly inconvenienced by the form factor change. 😅 (They’re very popular in the IT/AV/broadcast world.)
Sometimes you just have to wonder what’s in the water in Cupertino. (This isn’t a new thing, of course.)
