Apple just wants to throw a dongle party.

No, and that is pretty awful reasoning. You need a dongle to use their own devices with each other
You Can't Plug iPhone 7 Headphones Into a New Macbook Pro
Also, the dongle doesn't exist yet
Only USB-C too

They ran out of courage. Doesn't make them any less the King of the Forest.

Sometimes awesome technology is just a little ahead of it's time. See LaserDisc

Ummm I thought Apple was supposed to kill it off after version1?
As I recall we had a $100 bet on it...

They removed them from their phones to make them more water resistant. This doesn't really apply to their computers as they aren't typically used in the elements.

and there is still time for apple to throw in the towel on that piece of "technology"

I thought I had it bookmarked but I guess not. It's going to take me an hour to find the thread. Not sure it's worth a $100.00.
Guess I'll take a stab at it.

It's possible to add that search to Firefox's home page search bar as a "One-click search engine". The TD logo appears as an icon along with the other engines at the bottom of the recent searches dropdown list that appears when I begin typing a search term. Very handy.
