Even looking at power delivery alone, there's still different voltages and wattage, as well as cable specs. Nothing really changes. You still end up having different cables for different devices, essentially.
I haven’t run into a USB-PD charger that doesn’t fall back to 5V/2A if it can’t negotiate power delivery. As long as you buy a 45/65/100W PD brick and a supporting cable (both are cheap and getting cheaper) you don’t really have to worry about what you might be charging.
Even 20-25W phone chargers and cables will generally slow-charge most laptops in a pinch.

Charging my laptop with my powerbank I have for my phone is a moment of glory.
