Can I plug a USB-C device into a Thunderbolt 4 port?
Yes, a Thunderbolt port will negotiate data rate, power and video capabilities with the connected device and "fallback" to the USB protocol if the device is not Thunderbolt-enabled. This fallback mode also allows a Thunderbolt device to be connected to a non-Thunderbolt USB-C port and still function, albeit at a USB3 level.

As someone that supports Mac users, you can use USB-C docks in the Thunderbolt connections. We do that with Dell docks.
