> So your solution to making sure that you get the most compatibility is to buy Apple cables for Apple devices…meet the new boss. I was hoping you'd bite the hook, but not like this... Intel actually designed the spec, drivers and IC controllers for Thunderbolt. Apple consulted on it with USB-IF, but they don't own the spec like they do with Lightning. They're less of a new boss, and more subsuming their rightful position as a valued consultant on a shared standard. It's a good (albeit old) example of Apple doing the right thing through the right channels.
