Seriously. There is nothing complicated about those pins either. Most of them are 5V being pulled down to ground, so there is nothing to be considered in terms of signal integrity aside from continuity. We should have standardized front panel IO connectors (obviously usb and audio connectors are standardized).
Still a pain. I feel like we could surely do a better connector and layout for those by now
Well, at least the 9-pin layout is fairly standard these days.
