      Yes, the move to a standardised and more robust connector unironically will help cut down on waste.

      And it’s not just iPhones affected, btw.

      It will be cheaper/less waste in the long run as lightning cables are meant for single use before disposal. /s

      They are real garbage though.
      My apple OEM cables have only maintained connection for less than a month of cumulative use if they had to travel or do anything but sit unused on a shelf.
