USB-C Serial console != USB 3.1 port. Nor does a usb-c power supply port count either.
No need to get defensive, I wasn't the one asking if there was a use for USB > 2.0. If you didn't know before, now you know. If you did already then at most you read a sentence full of information you already knew. Hardly a terrible offense. Other readers who might not have known also now know. :)
I wasn't asking if there was a use for USB 3.1, I am already aware of how it's commonly used on routers (apart from the LTE fallback the other commenter mentioned. That's pretty cool). But even so, your comment didn't list a use for it. You listed uses for usb-c, most of which it seems that it's already capable of. It's not a big deal really, just clarifying.
