The ongoing ability to never name anything consistently or well has to be a sick inside joke at USB-IF. This isn't <i>entirely</i> new. USB 3.1 Gen 2, which latter became USB 3.2 2x1, is sort of similar-ish in pattern. They're iterating & trying something new again! But I'm imagining saying something like "USB 3.2 2.0". We seem about there. Yeah that don't seem great.<p>Anyhow, super excited for this change. I love love love that home networking is futzing around with 2.5Gbps, but USB4+ has direct host-to-host attach at data-center speeds. The distance is way less but often people just want to plug their laptop into their NAS, and now there's amazing options built in on most computers (waiting for more NAS applicances!).<p>> <i>USB4 Version 2.0 has also been updated to feature the latest versions of the DisplayPort standard and PCIe spec</i><p>Still love so much that we can tunnel all kinds of other protocols (DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, &c). Yeah, it's chaotic, but I <i>love</i> this chaos. Good chaos. Lots of possibilities chaos.
