If it was for the "free market" you wouldn't have usb-c at Apple.

  Sure, of course it doesn't always work. Did I imply otherwise? Especially for minor annoyances, design optimizations/flaws like USB-C, glued batteries, no side-loading etc. that don't outweigh the other advantages that specific product has over it's competitors for the overwhelming major of consumer. I personally found Apple sticking to lighting to be a minor inconvenience at most but it might have been different for other people.

    I have a cable that'll charge all of my battery-operated devices, except my work phone. My work phone needs a special cable. Is that a middling annoyance, unreasonably annoying or… both?

      Mild inconvenience? Compared to having a Macbook with a touch bar at least.

  The EU demand gave them a deadline more than anything. It was pretty clear they were moving to USB-C at some point.
