USB-C didn’t exist when they went to Lightning, it wasn’t an option. The fact all their other products were moving seems to indicate they’d move to USB-C on the iPhone as well. Rumors had them working on it for years. Now maybe it would have come out this year and not last. MagSafe: they added something back. You can still charge with USB-C. Works fine, I do it. Thunderbolt: that wasn’t Apple. Intel invented it and Apple put it to use. I have no idea if it’s open or closed, that’s my fault. What I meant was it wasn’t an Apple invention. Besides, what else had that kind of bandwidth at the time in a cable? It’s not like there was some common better thing they shunned.
