That's one of the things I like about Displayport. It locks in but is generally not too hard to remove (depending on your monitor/PC clearance).

The other is that it doesn't involve paying ransom to the HDMI consortium...

The port is great.

Device manufacturers putting said port deep in the bowels of Erebus where no mortal man could hope to actuate the locking mechanism is less great.
