Because companies are not providing products with removable batteries so the consumers refusing to buy products with non-removable batteries doesn’t work because there’s no alternative product to purchase
There are plenty of products with removable batteries. Not my problem if you don’t want them. You’re objectively incorrect in saying no alternative products are available.
The USB c-thing is not just about user friendliness it’s also about the environment
Cool, don’t give a damn
Also the Apple charger which is what I’m assuming you’re going on about is actually less safe than the usb-c standard
I’m talking more generally about any cable anywhere with superior elements to usb c. But yeah, the lightning port apple made was a massive improvement over micro USB, the standard at the time for everyone else, and is still a significantly more durable charger port than usb c given its external connectors.
I have plenty of issues with apple, but they’re a perfect example of making good products that don’t conform to these crappy legal standards.
If a product has a feature you don’t care about, why do you care, just don’t use it and you’re fine
You understand the irony in saying this given that you’re of the position that the government should force your preferred features into products regardless, no? I care because I’m stuck with all the downsides of features you want, and companies are literally prohibited from selling me other options.
