Yeah agree, but maybe they could have like 4 categories: A-general B-power C-display D-specialised
And then have a second rating system like 1-10 for example 1-bare bones 5-decent 10-the bells whistle
Like on a computer monitor I state I need a C5 or higher to work. Or I buy a A4B4 cable that is for general purposes or something.
This is just a quick idea, horrible idea actually, but because currently I do not know if for example I can use this cable in my drawer to charge my phone or use it as a display cable. So I feel like with USB C they wanted to make a universal cable, but now I feel like there is even more confusion than with USB B
Color coding? Just spitballing.
