the replacement operation is not usually that expensive... i had a phone fixed in Budapest that got gunked or otherwise messed up (micro) for 20 euros

but it's avoidable and in the circumstances i was mostly not plugging it into a charger

the simple fact is that usb micro, and to a similar but maybe lesser extent, usb C is just fucking shit design, a bunch of wires embedded in some plastic, when much more robust and time proven is the old printed circuit board etched off regime, like the apple style
