The problem with this is they mandate something in the law and then there comes along a new and better option that nobody can use because there's a stupid law...
Personally I still want to see more people do that contact connector that was in the dock of my Motorola Xoom.
The law doesn’t actually force USB C. It’s whatever the standard the USB IF says. So if USB D comes out and they say it’s the best then they’ll switch to that.
The one they were talking about months ago was specific, not really a fan of C, it's a much more fragile connection than A. The extra bandwidth isn't worth how often they fail compared to other connectors.
