I've personally never had one of those hinged ethernet jacks reliably work. Or, they do, but the link is incredibly unstable. I just settled on having a thick enough laptop to support a 'native' full-size jack in my last purchase cycle, but I could see the Framework style being very nice for how little I find myself using it: that way when you _need_ a full size jack, you have one that's stable.

I suspect most people these days have hardwired networking to a laptop dock, and then thunderbolt from there to the laptop anyway.
