The ethernet port seems useless to me. Which computer or laptops don't have ethernet port these days?

^ Some people have their ethernet port burn out because they didn't put their switch or router on a sufficient surge protector, so surge goes through the link.

Another possibility is the cable was bumped or snagged and damages the port's PCB solder joints.

Better question is why not, if it's adding little if any additional cost? I suppose if traveling with it, slightly less bulk would be one reason.

newer laps like mine only 2020 don't have Ethernet bc they assume wifi. thinner laptops forego due to thickness

While a single user probably has minimal need, two ports are very useful in isolating a guest network or even a printer, in interconnection to cellular service, in network monitoring applications, and many others. As for the comment about travel, I always try to travel with a hub which includes an ethernet port.

I use these all the time for setting up Firewalls, and also for my laptop that did not come with a Built-in ethernet port
