That is why I was surprised to see that they retained the USB interface ? 

As a first order approximation, anything related to USB is cost
optimized, and therefore EMI/EMC efforts terminate the moment the
spurs are 3dB under the template.

They do have a comment about stationary vs. laptop giving different
spurs, so I guess they are aware of it.

At that level of ambition I would have reached for batteries +
linear PSU + fiber-optics, even though it would be both more
cumbersome and costly.
