Still better having new universal standards come out over time (as requirements exceed the capabilities of the previous standards) than having a different one for each company or device.

I remember buying a Nokia phone and finding out that used a different cable to my earlier Nokia phone.

I'm not quite sure what the complaint here is? USB is a standard, and the problem was that we didn't have the standard installed. The fact you've got a slightly different version of the standard is a simple problem to solve by owning a cheap cable.

In fact it's literally the same as having USB-C on both ends, since it's still only the one cable. A to C, or C to C, it makes no difference
