I don't have an opinion on this. The female plug always holds the power and the male taps into it. Doing it the other way around is unusual, you get a naked male plug with power on it just dangling around.
- Brian_K_White 3y agoWhile true for clear one way connections, usbc is bi-directional or symmetrical. 1 Either side may provide power. 2 usbc power delivery requires a fancy communication and management chip, and there is no power until after a handshake has been negotiated. So in that case a lightning style cable could be ok. (besides, even with plain usb2, lightening already existed for years without a problem) But while lightning-style may be good, F lightening specifically. The design was good for the reasons stated. Put the weak points in the more disposable part of the system. But for standards purposes I am not interested in any good design that anyone owns. All in all, lightning is not good. If it's good but you can't use it, then it's not good.
