It doesn't prevent you putting a DisplayLink type device on your TB3 hub though.

My understanding is the 2016 15" MacBook has dual TB 3 controllers, so up to four external 4K displays are supported. Or two 5K displays.

I am currently using a DisplayLink USB device to drive two external monitors. The DisplayLink software driver/firmware for Mac has gone from terrible to mostly usable, but I fear every macOS update and DisplayLink driver update. Very slow to fix problems and some functionality has taken years to get right. Looking forward to unplugging it from my Mac and moving on.
