How are the stylus complaints 'unfounded?' It's a tablet designed to be used with a stylus. I can guarantee you people are going to have a hard time keeping track of that thing over the long term with no place to store it. Already I often find myself using the Surface and wanting the stylus, but it's been left in another room or at my desk. Dumb, dumb design.
Honestly people have been managing styli without slots and without issue for a very long time. Most devices are capacative these days and virtually none come with a stylus slot. For that matter when was the last time you had a pad of paper that came with a slot for holding a writing utensil? The point is that the mag port is a convenient place to keep it when in use but temporarily setting aside and there are many ways to manage longer term storage and transportation particularly with most bags having dedicated pen/pencil/stylus slots just for holding such things.
