I like US plugs. Sure, it's easier to shock yourself with them, but you usually only do that once (because it feels bad, not because it's often fatal).
I like them because they're small. I have a nifty little 3-port USB-A/C power supply where the plug folds flush. Europlug would have trouble doing that, and it's outright impossible with Schuko and UK plugs.

Other folding UK plug brands are available. /bbc_announcer_voice
- Zak 4y agoThat's the closest I've seen. There's still a huge amount of bulk devoted to the plug, but that does fold flat.
