The same things Macbook pro users plug in where they'd see the USB speed differences. Just because someone isn't as privileged as to be able to afford a MacBook Pro instead of a Neo doesn't mean they don't have the same dreams and desires.

Monitors, mainly (as if you plug it in the "wrong" one it doesn't work).

Followed by the IT-nerd of the family always complaining to them.

Again, I think it's a minor nit realistically, but people are going to harp on it.

For monitors at least, if you plug in to the wrong port you will get a GUI prompt advising you to use the other one [1]:

I hope they added (or will add) that feature to other Macs too, on mine I had to try out different ports and check the settings to find the one which can go beyond 60Hz.
