We have the hardware for it, but until we can complete certification, we can’t claim Thunderbolt compatibility.


I suppose what this really means is that you have USB4 with support for the optional PCIE tunneling, and support for the slightly higher frequency alternative mode, which is generally enough to function with peripherals labeled as Thunderbolt, since it is literally exactly the same protocol.

Somewhat obnoxious that you need additional certification to actually call it what it obviously is.
