npub1q5n6q7wxyj7dz2srpsxqsuqe4qv45v23ucrgnmnmwc9azulld4uq9fvwcn (npub1q5n…vwcn) I am glad to see by your post on USB-C that you a) linked to my TidBITS article (thank you!) and b) are an old crank like me (I don't know your age). My general advice these days is: buy a Thunderbolt 4/USB4 cable or two. They're not that pricey compared to all the others, if slightly thicker. Then ignore standards.
But you'd think by this point, Apple, the USB-IF, and Intel would have sorted out a simpler cable head branding system? There must be some very annoying reason not.
