i used to think usb c was awesome and would lead to a 1 wire for everything world. Now i have 4 different kinds of usb c wire i need depending on usecase - passive usb c for charging my headphones since they didn't implement a resistor, active usb c for charging laptop,usb c for charging mobile(fast charging),usb c for data transfer/thunderbolt/video display what a disaster of a spec

The spec isn't a disaster. Vendors implementing is. The main problem is that OEMs don't give a sh*t about the spec and cutting corners whenever they can.

  The spec should require clear labelling of SOME kind to differentiate between the different types of wires. I feel like that's been a common issue with the USB spec and one they refuse to address
