"Now, granted, Light Peak is far more versatile than USB3..."

NOT granted. Do you understand how a flash drive (for example) works? Can you power an external device over Light Peak?

That's the goal. USB doesn't deliver enough power anyway. Firewire delivers a lot more.

And thus why Light Peak is not going to simply show up and take over everything in sight.

Aim elsewhere.
