The phone hasn’t even been announced or released yet. How is anyone supposed to know the answer?

For all we know Apple could have put limits on what you can do with the port. Who knows?

Wait until it comes out and then ask.

There will definitely be limits placed on the USB-C capabilities both from a charging standpoint as well the data transfer when using accessories not part of the MFA program. As for attaching USB storage devices, I’d like to think as with the it’ll be an option, but it may also be a feature reserved for the Pro models considering if the rumors are true the regular 15’s will have (around) base USB 2 transfer speeds.
 
And lose the highly lucrative margins on selling flash memory?
