What I really want is for all of my outlets to have one A/C and one retractable usb-c cable. So the cables are exposed when in use, but coiled back into the wall otherwise. When will my dream come true?
I get the attraction, but I detest it! USB-C male jacks are designed to fail. All of these systems are designed to fail!
Thankfully usb-c's a lot more rugged, lasts a lot longer than previous designs. But there's still limits! Throwing out a whole charger or battery because the cable goes bad like this is so gross. Ideally there'd be a design where the retractable cable could appear built-in, but would at least be replaceble. That would be fine! But this retractable cable trend: it's a forced push towards disposable electronics.
