Most usb cables are old and slow, even the stuff people buy in stores as “new”.
I bought a few top of the line cables and threw away an entire drawer of old cables. Felt great!

You might wanna make sure jb55 doesn't get his hands on your cables!
The new usbc is 40gbps transfer and charges at 240w, but you need a charger that is capable of outputting that and a device that can charge at that and most don’t - not even the new iPhones (not sure about android). I think only the frame laptop can currently charge at 240w. So it’s more future-proofing than anything but the transfer speeds are awesome - but again, depend on your device ports. (Usb4, thunderbolt 4, pcie4, display port 2.0)
