I bought one for the car because I wanted to use a very short USB cable with a 90° plug which didn't exist as a charging-only cable. I think it's funny how one thinks that damaging the cable sheath just to cut two cables makes one end up with a proper charging-only cable which one would actually like to carry around. I've seen enough Apple Lightning cables which are damaged near the connector where I always think: what kind of people are these who are okay with this? I do cut USB cables, but it's for tinkering and not for normal use.
