USB-C cable: are you sure im one of the 15 possible choices that is correct for your needs? I know we all have the same connector and there are no clear visual indicators, so I understand why it would be difficult. Kinda males that upside-down A connector complaint seem trivial, eh?

Lightning cable: I just work lol.

EU beaurocrats: o no something that works!

Buy quality cables and it's a non issue...

If you buy a 5 pack of cables on Amazon for a nickel, you shouldn't expect it to work like something brand name. It's like if you bought one of those 1tb micro SD cards for $5 and get upset that it will only hold 8gb so you blame the micro SD card form factor...

Hence why I said cheap cables

If I am holding a quality USB-C cable, what are the well-defined standards established that help me identify whether it supports 29W, 30W, or 100W? Whether it supports 3.1 or 3.2? If it can push video and how many monitors it can support?

My critique isnt that lightning does any of that better. It's just that when I hold a lightning cable, I know what it does.

I know what all my Type Cs do because I just buy the best one every time. Unless I want to a a specific feature disabled like a cable that only charges for opsec reasons.
