I'll bet my left nut that you don't have a male USB-A to female USB-C adapter that can support fast charging. So you'll still end up ordering one from Amazon - a local store is unlikely to carry one.

USB-A to USB-C is the current standard. I am convinced they include a USB-C to USB-C cable because most people don't have those chargers, so they'll be more likely to order one with their phone.

Is there actually a major phone company defaulting to shipping their phones with C to C???

USB-A doesn't carry enough voltage to support USB-C fast charging rates. So even if you have an adapter (I have a few), you're not getting the best performance from your devices.

1.25a is not fast charging, at least not the new standard. You need at least 3a, and 5 is ideal. You also need a matching cable capable of carrying those loads. USB-A caps out at 1.5a.
