Wow, that's cool. There are apparently ones for micro USB, which means that ... I can have a magsafe adapter for my phone. I might have to buy one, as my kids destroyed the last charger they tried to unplug from my phone.

Now they just need to get USB-C on the next iPhone, and everyone will complain that Lightning was fine. They should have done USB-C from the beginning for lightning, but it wasn't ready yet (and still really isn't in terms of ecosystem and standardization in practice).

Not gonna happen, iOS devices are Apple devices.
The best you can hope for is a short 1st party lightning to USB-C female, but this probably won't happen for a while as USB-C spec requires ANYTHING with a receptacle to talk to the thing on the other end.
