Re:Ever Plugged a USB in Wrong? (2019) by robocat on Tuesday January 14, 2020 @02:08PM (#22048155)
Wikipedia: "Micro-USB and USB-C receptacles are both designed for a minimum rated lifetime of 10,000 cycles of insertion and removal".

AFAIK an insertion cycles test is linear and extremely repetitive e.g. no bending forces and no foreign objects. It doesn't cover the wide range of real world stresses.
