Are they even talking about a standard, or just a connector's form? Some usb-c cords are pinned to only charge and can't transfer shit, and a variety of chargers, uhm, is puzzling. I guess is 2030 we'd have superhypergigacharge provided by some vendors, while people would bitch about why their smartphone charger can't power a laptop. Such chaos, much reeeee.
