    Burn all the USBC cables with fire except PD. The top PD cable does everything the lower cable does.

      IDK I’ve had PD cables that looked good for a while but turns out their data rate was basically USB2. It seems no matter what rule of thumb I try there are always weird caveats.

      No, I’m not bitter, why would you ask that?

        You forgot thunderbolt and usb4 exists now

        You can buy a single cable that does 40GB and USB4 and charges at 240w.

        True but pretty much the only devices that need those are high-end SSDs and laptop docks and in both cases you just leave the cable with the device rather than pulling it out of your generic cables drawer.
