As for power delivery. If you are using power delivery through the hub you need 15w more then what your device uses. That should be a given. If you plug this into your laptop without power it will power through that. You are going from USB-C to HDMI, SD slot, etc, things that require power for the device plugged in or to push the signal on the wire. Do you think that light on your USB stick is magical or powered from a battery within the device? You are either sucking power from your laptop/device or from the power coming in. So if you have a standard Dell laptop with a standard 65w power adapter then no you cant use the same charger through this. If you have a laptop that needs 65w and you have a 90w adapter or a aftermarket adapter that's 80w+ then it will work fine.
As for 4k@60. Yes it works IF your laptop supports DisplayPort 1.4 on the USB-C connection. That's a newer machine, like 11th generation Intel or higher. No your 4 year old 8th gen isn't going to get 4k@60 but the 4k@30 should still work.
As for data transfer speeds. Yes it will be slower going through a hub then directly connected to your laptop. For 98% of people this isn't going to matter even slightly. For the last 2% that want fast access to a external SSD then it might matter if for some reason you are directly editing movies feom the SSD and not copying locally.
As for "well it doesn't have Ethernet/USB-C/VGA/etc". Yeah, it's $18. Buy something else that will definitely be more then $18.
Personally I bought 5 for work because people need a HDMI port or a SD card reader and those adapters are like $15 by themselves. Might as well have one that does everything.
