The remote charges via Lightning but the ATV4 has USB Type-C? What?

Because when you buy an Apple product either online or in a store. You will be promoted to buy accessories. Every good retailer does this. Nothing new.

Apple Store employees never said a word actually. Not a problem, I knew about it.

Aside from cheap Chinese trinkets are there any other products that ship with a device that requires charging without a means to do so in the products box?

Not a problem for the vast majority just something that you made me think about.

It would be awesome if Apple put it there for future peripheral options... like a webcam for FaceTime videos.

and you expect everyone to pay for this future feature that can't be used now? or you expect people to offer a welfare feature program?

Isn't USB-C the future?

It is, but that didn't stop them from slapping Lighting onto their new keyboard, trackpad, and mouse.

Umm, excuse me, but WTH are you even trying to argue? The USB-C port is already there. It's been there since the fourth-gen AppleTV launched. It would only require a software update to enable compatibility with external peripherals.
