Get a good quality cable. I break USB-C cables maybe once every year and a half, less often than I broke headphones or microUSB.
The connector design itself is shit, and the rubberized housing of the connector isn't mechanically supported as any self-respecting consumer-grade cable should be, all torque transfers to the PCB and that's horrible design.
There's no reason the torque has to transfer to the PCB. That's just poor design. My phone's USB-C port is sleeved by the chassis for example, and so is the one in my GaN charger. There is zero torque transfer to the PCB, the chassis or frame takes all of the load.
You can't rely on the cable to cancel the torque anyways, rubber yields and the normal force at the housing will pull the connector out slightly allowing for torque to still be applied to the connector, you have no choice than to brave either the female, male, or both ports to the chassis in some way.
