Industrial design demands this. A replacement connector should be difficult to remove and use sufficiently thick cables. Because of the requirements there is little room for improvement and thus we have used the same connectors for 30 years.

That’s useful for some power hungry components, but I wish there were a smaller alternate 4-pin power cable standard that I could use to route power around to things like fans and SATA SSDs. Something in between the giant molex connectors and a 3-pin fan connector.
