    Well, the last two monitors I bought didn’t come with any signal cables at all, probably because the manufacturers don’t need to presume whether the consumer prefers HDMI or DP, or whether the other side is full size, mini-DP/mini-HDMI, or USB-C alt mode. Just right there, that’s 5 possibilities, each about as common as the others.

      Well, that sucks. Mine came with an hdmi, a displayport cable ans a usb-a to usb-b 3.0 cable for the monitor’s hub (it has an integrated kvm). To me it makes 100% sense to include at least 1 cable for each type of input in the monitor. If you’re fine with getting short-changed by manufacturers then good for you, I guess.
