They don’t until they do. Then I have to fix their problem. I live it everyday.

Solid guess. You know your USB 2.0 USB-C to USB-C charging cables. (Its a 60w capable cable btw, not 120w or 240w, so don’t bother trying to power your gaming laptop with it)

You don’t know the purpose of a USB-C cable because they all look the same.

Tell me, what is this cable capable of?

Its going to cause issues when you grab a random USB-C cable out of your USB-C cable box and try to use a low bandwidth cable that has USB-C connectors when you need a high bandwidth cable that has USB-C connectors.

I don’t get how thats hard to understand.

It is a huge issue indeed, and we are living that issue for decades to come.

You can charge all you want, but when you’re trying to thunderbolt your laptops display to three 4K monitors and grab your USB 2.0 charging cable to do that with, now you might have some bandwidth issues.

And honestly, even attempting to charge your laptop with a shit tier cable probably won’t charge your laptop.

Good luck with that 🫡

The devices are outgrowing the capabilities of the cables. Doesn’t matter if the connector fits or not.

You will have issues in the future and youll pull your hair out trying to figure out why its not working.

This is funny to me because so many people wanted USB-C to be a government mandated, gun pointed to your head standard, and they couldn’t see how now we are stuck with USB-C being the default connector. That never meant you automatically get new protocols running over that wire. You still have to buy new cables.
