    I understand that, but I’ve had USB C devices for almost a decade. I only buy full featured cables so it hasn’t been an issue, at least for me. Any time a device comes with a cable it goes into the trash.

      So you see the issue and have a workaround. Good! But that doesn’t mean that, as you said, “it’s not the cables that are the issue.” Why throw them away if they’re not an issue?

        I don’t need 36 cables that I’ll never use. I have a charger and cable in my living room, kitchen, bedroom, office, basement, and car. Those cables will charge almost every electronic device I own, 8 of them currently within eyesight.

            But then someone else will end up with these bunk cables. They really should have demanded mandatory identification on the cable ends.
