    Looking at Anker website, their most expensivest charging block is 250W with a 140W max per port.

    140W blocks are not so common. Anything beyond that is super rare if even exists.

    Your typical laptop would utilize 45-85W with the most common 65W. Some gaming laptops would need 240W or more. 240W is a technical limit for USB-C PD right now. As an example, a gaming laptop - Legion Pro 7 16 is rated 400W and a laptop for creators - ThinkPad P14s is rated 100W.

    In the end, the most common power block is 65W that will be sufficient with majority of devices. The law is making sense in a way that they will remove all those barrel jacks and proprietary connectors from most common devices leaving them for specific cases.
