While Apple might have switched to USB-C on their own, they would have done so using propriety cables again. Thankfully the EU thwarted those plans.

They had already switched checks note almost every other device they make to USB-C. The few that weren't USB-C at the launch of the iPhone 15 have been moved since then (specifically keyboard and mouse). I'm not sure if there are any Lightning devices left at this point.
