USB-C is a connector, and has no effect on speed.

I think you're referring to USB 3.1 gen2, which would double the theoretical bandwidth to 10Gbps.

If so I'm amazed, because I have never seen someone conflate those two before. I've seen plenty of people conflate USB-C and USB 3 in general, but not specifically thinking USB-C implies the 10gbps mode.
