But we still can use miniplane to distribute power via it?


Cheers.

I didn't ask that one yet but the way barntech said it you can't since boards don't play nice together or on the board  plane right now

Read it again... They don't play nice data wise. So you can't chain them and use one USB yet when connected to miniplane or double scroll.   You have to use multiple USB cables for data for now.   But you are definitely able to still have them all connected to the miniplanes and use power.   

It's just the board firmware that needs updating to allow chip chaining across the miniplane (the miniplane and double scroll have no brains/firmware and are passive connections in terms of data).
