It's not the spec's fault.

I'm not defending the defective hardware.

The cable, or one of the devices involved, isn't following the spec.



100% is the specs fault. It tries to solve all of life’s problems. But only creates more. There should be 1 spec for a cable. Period. It should be universal.


For basic charging cables, there is only one kind.

And the spec was ignored.

You think removing unrelated cables from the spec would make manufacturers do a better job at basic charging cables? I doubt it.
