Pros: existing tools and knowledge transfer over, d-subs have been field proven and plenty of experience exists for folks who worked with them.
Cons: it is now possible to connect microfluidic connections to electrical, or use the wrong sort of couplers, or a bunch of other issues that pose risks to new uses and existing usages of electrical d-sub connections.
Like, imagine if they used regular Edison power cables, or HDMI etc. Sometimes there are good reasons not to use existing standards.
