Apple debuts colorful 24-inch iMac with M1, upgraded camera and audio

You make a very legitimate point here. When I look behind my iMac I see a thunderbolt drive and cable for my Time Machine drive, a thunderbolt to DisplayPort connection to a secondary monitor, a USB3 hub and cable for various iDevices, a USB3 hard drive and cable for Carbon Copy Cloner, a USB cable for my primary speakers, a USB cable to a DAC for headphones, and a USB3 cable to an external SSD hosting my VMWare virtual machines. Oh, throw in the Ethernet cable as well. And power cord.
I wish Apple had an iMac styled monitor to pair with the Mac Mini - then people could pick whatever worked best for them. Pretty amazing the consternation Apple not producing a matching monitor any more has and continues to cause -

I hope they carry it over to the bigger iMacs too! Because even though mine is backed into a corner too, the mess of cables - while mostly out of site - makes cleaning/retrieving anything that falls back there a PITA. If I could organize all the cables under the desk that would be amazing. -

It’s one HDMI cable different. And if I mount the mini to the back of the display it becomes invisible.
Also it's only "invisible" if your computer backs up against a wall without anything on the other side of it. Otherwise it's a rats nest of cables again.
Lots of use cases where computers are not backed up against walls.
If only Apple provided choice, they could solve this hopeless conundrum
