The link does not resolve for me. I recall discussions and assumptions that commercial CMOS could be provisionally expected to work to cryogenic temperatures. I have only routinely qualified to -40, and many +85C parts for excursions to 105

When you look at the pinout, USB-C is comparable to a conventional ad-hoc backplane in terms of the number of functions it supports. Except the backplane implementations (i.e. the cables) are not uniform, so fun times. At least with DB25-
