Not entirely accurate. It's a dock connector, not just power. The $160 USD dock gives you two more USB-C display adapters, two USB-C ports, 2 USB-A ports, an ethernet port and 170W (if I recall) adapter. It's big but incredibly useful for a desktop dock. Slip one reversable magnetic connector in and you've got all your accessories out of the box. If you just want to charge, USB-C is fine.
