I am using it how these guys are https://www.anker.com/blogs/hubs-and-docks/do-usb-hubs-add-latency
What’s a better word? Edit delay makes sense
In that sense, latency totally is the correct usage, but their use in your link isn’t anything you’d be using a usb-c to micro-usb adapter for. Latency would only matter if you were trying to mirror image from one device to another. Latency wouldn’t effect charge speed or data transfer rates, which is all you be using one of the adapters to do.
