I think hdmi and displayports should have the screws like vga had. There I said it. While vga was annoying it was sturdy as hell
once you got it plugged in. I knew some machines where the cable could hold the entire computer up. So many display and hdmi ports die
because they get bent or broken due to nothing securing it. if we had screws it would add like 10 years to a cables lifecycle for users.
vgas blue color also made it easy to find in the cable pile compared to a black hdmi or displayport cable. it had its flaws but it did alot of things right
if you cant undo a vga cable then might I recommend this
