Why not? It's only an adapter away if you have something thst needs to connect to a usb-c female host port. And if you need more ports, which seems likely, you can get a usb hub which has ports of your preference.

A or C you'll have to use a dongle regardless.

Haven’t used USB-A on my Laptop in years. Don’t even have an adapter.
