Ok, I mean if that’s MTP then sure, I thought it was something else, but I don’t see the problem, I’ve literally never had issues with reading or writing files using it over multiple devices and I have access to everything I’d have with a file browser app on my phone.
Edit:
Reading this article, I don’t see why you would ever want to go back, it sounds like it has way more issues than the current solution.
I’m glad that it works for you but you have to know that it’s not like that for everyone. Last time I tried using MTP I had to write a script that would call rsync in a loop until all files were transfered because every time like one or two files would just mysteriously not make it across the cable.
Also, not me personally, but some people have usecases like playing video files from their phone on their tv or sending files to a printer over the cable. This wouldn’t work with MTP because most “dumb” devices like that don’t support it
