It's horrific UX. It makes so much more sense to be able to use a thing while charging it. And it is the de facto industry standard for mice and keyboards as well.
Yes, there are many items than can't be charged and used simultaneously, but if it is an option, it is an option that should be used. Clearly for a mouse, it is possible.

What would the usability of this fairly light mouse be with such a cable attached? This design also almost guarantees the battery in this device will not be connected to a charger for long durations. That may be good for keeping the battery healthy.
