Yeah, USB-C is the way to go from now on regarding this issue. Using proprietary chargers needs to die.

My Lenovo came with a charger rated for 135 watts. USB-PD maxes out at 100.

They’re going to need to fix that with PD; my MBP occasionally exceeds the 100W adapter I use, causing the battery to drain.

Dell has 130 watts chargers/docks over usb-c connectors, guess it's not standard PD then.
