Gregory's Server@SebastienK I know this is a bit late but just jumping into the replies here, I have an iPhone and most other things I have use usb-c, I had to go out of my way to buy a lightning cable while I already had plenty of usb-c, with the iPhone being the only lightning port device I have.
This will create e-waste from Apple users who have few usb-c products, but this is Apple's issue they created years ago by not changing w everyone else.
EU is also ignoring the actual issue here by not (1/2)
@SebastienK (2/2) addressing that Apple & others will invetivibly require mfi-certified for full features, creating the same situation/issue as the lightning cable vs usb-c debate by making it apple usb-c vs other usb-c.
This could have been an okay-ish solution that has some issues long-term, but them ignoring that will make more e-waste because even users who have usb-c will need to buy a special Apple usb-c just to get full functionality.
The issue here is Apple creating this situation.
