          Yeah, it’s a weird state of things. But not really, when you think about other cable standards.

          It’s interesting how USB, and now USB-C is becoming a standard power delivery interface. Even for things that have no “smart” features. I’m actually interested in getting USB-C wall outlets. In a few places.

            i don’t get why people want C outlets, USB A outlets have been standard since time immemorial at this point and they’re fine for that. The only time i see a reason to output power from USB C is when you’re getting a charge from someone’s phone, otherwise it can just be A
