The main thing USB-C and Lightning have going for them, which Micro-B doesn't, is the redundancy of two connection pads.
I've had more than one female Lightning port start to get tetchy about which direction a cable goes in.
All I'll miss from Lightning is being able to clean the port with a toothpick. Then again, that's not a small thing. When I hear/feel a bit of grit in a USB-C port I get a sinking feeling, with Lightning I just reach for a dental pick.

- shuntress 4y agoSnap a toothpick in half roughly and you should get a sliver on the broken end that fits around the USB-C tongue very well for cleaning lint.
