I feel like computer monitors DP is pretty common, but I also specifically try to get them. DP is pretty rare on TVs. They’re functionally the same technologies, but most TVs won’t include DP.
I had to replace a few recently and only found HDMI but I was specifically looking for the cheapest monitors possible so maybe that had something to do with it. I also needed them ASAP so I was only looking in local stores.
I’ve seen the opposite more often, where most monitors will have HDMI and DP, but several that only had DP (usually miniDP) and Type-C ports. I don’t think I’ve seen any since the early 2000s that only had HDMI (and usually DVI or VGA).

I’ll look closer next time.
