Yes, which has been my answer since 1999--the start of it's discontinuance. We had a good thing going with the PC System Design Guide back then, to identify goals to meet in the following year such as no more ISA and minimum CPU/RAM. That went well, but suggesting that it was time to leave 3.5" floppy drives and PS/2 ports behind was just too crazy of an idea for some reason. Floppies endured for many years afterwards but we're more or less rid of them now (yes, I know that some govment depts still use them) and we'll eventually be rid of the PS/2 port too.
If we had stuck to the plan those issues with USB would have long since been resolved and we'd have a more beautiful backplate and a better USB standard than we have now.
