Who's the idiot that designed this thing to only have "mini" port variants on a monitor?

Definitely a weird and annoying choice. To be fair, if the cables in the box are long enough for you, it won't end up mattering tho. Also still possible to buy mini to standard cables, it's just pretty uncommon these days.

I wonder how the display finish on the Samsung Odyssey G8 compares to the Alienware AW3423DW, and if there are any tuning differences for the panel.
