This is just WRONG !
Only if you need it. if I bought a new MB for my wife, she would never need it. One port would be plenty.
This would be true for my wife - except that I make her do a CCC backup from time to time. I suppose that means I am the one that uses that port and not her ! (she does have a wireless Time Capsule for Time Machine backups).
You can do clones over the network with Carbon Copy Cloner if you use another Mac as a destination. Do the initial backup with a USB connected drive and then connect the drive to the "server" Mac for incremental backups.
