I actually copied this from the article to come here to the comments and have a whinge about all the different USB-C standards, and here you are explaining the reason why.
The whole point of USB-C is that it's a standardised connector that allows anyone to shoehorn their own protocol down it if they want using Alt Mode. Moreover, they can do that without breaking compatibility with other USB-C - or even just specific features - if one of the devices doesn't speak their crazy-ass moon protocols. This is a benefit of USB-C, not a failing.
Don't get so excited. Read my comment again.
