Re: By the time it is standard
The real issue is that noone is going to want to think about designing the next connector - for anything, not just for portable devices
Yes, everything now will be done via expansion of USB-C's capabilities, regardless of how unsuited it may be. No one will think about a magnetically attached connector, no one will think about fiber optic connectors, no one will think about adding capabilities that require more wires than USB-C has. Because why bother, when it can't be used on phones, laptops, or anything else that the EU law will eventually cover? It isn't worth it, so nothing new will even be developed because it won't be worth the investment.
