One upon a time, the concept behind a universal USB-C connector was so we could do exactly that.
Laptop? Phone? Camera?
America? Germany? Japan?
Power? Connect the to TV? Internet?
Wouldn’t matter anymore. USB-C to cover it all. Voltage high for the laptop, low for the camera, all available just the same in every country, universal. So yes, fill the airports and hotels with them. Use them for power and to play videos on the TV. Because we weren’t supposed to have to question the voltage or abilities of the ports and cables in use.
Actually, that leads me to another point:

Did/will that future materialize?
