The video dissects a USB-C cable marked with a 10A rating even though there is no such rating in the standard.

It would be interesting what this is meant for, as I've never seen a device with such a rating?

It means it does 10 Ampère charging. It's part of the USB 3.2 spec.

Where? I can't find any reference to any device being allowed to draw 10A: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_hardware#Allowable_current_draw

This community is for discussing topics related to USB-C and USB-PD.

Primitive connectors like USB-A and Micro USB are not offtopic, but may elicit a smug sense of superiority.
