It seems to dilute the oneness, and hence the perceived value of USB-C, not to mention the logos are fugly.

- maxerickson 5y agoThe different cables can already physically exist, so it's not really changing those things a lot, just making cable identification easier.
- jacquesm 5y agoIt's the other way around. USB-C tries to be too many things at once and this leads to confusion. They should have either mandated that it only handles the top end of the spec at the physical level and gracefully degrades if that isn't available on either end (so at least the cable would be standard), or use physically different plugs to avoid accidental frying of equipment and things just plain not working. If the plug fits -> it should work.
- Ginden 5y ago> use physically different plugs to avoid accidental frying of equipment and things just plain not working. Frying equipment is not possible with properly implemented USB devices and cable - because PD requires active negotiation.
