I doubt 95% of users even sync anymore. The only reason you used to do that was for podcasts, music, and backing up. Now, that’s mostly pointless thanks to streaming services and backups you can do in the cloud.

It has nothing to do with syncing. Many people charge their phone off their laptop using the cable.

  > Many people charge their phone off their laptop using the (USB-A) cable. Why would you do that? It's going to be super-slow - I don't believe it supports Fast Charging as the port can't handle the minimum 20 W.

    Well plugging an iPhone 11 into the wall with the included cable would be 5W and the phone itself only supports up to 18W. So yeah plugging it into the wall will be super slow too. So yes some people will buy a USB C to lightning cable for their older iPhone and a better wall adapter but most people will just use the included charger.
