Since the 2016s were released the USB-C cord is separated from the power brick, so if there's any cord fraying you can just replace the cord w/o replacing the brick.

Which also has the added benefit of allowing you to use your own cable that is either more durable to begin with or a different length. I have a 10 ft USB C braided cable that I've been using since day one, which is much more convenient than having a fixed cable attached to the brick.

So... they have to get everything literally perfect on the first attempt in order for you not to dismiss it?

Do you even own a computer? Is there any company that manages to meet your standards?

It replaced magsafe, which is a superior technology.
