A Lightning to USB-C cable is included in the box, not USB-A.

My mistake. I guess they have even less of a complaint then.

No, it's still stupid that you have to use a different cable.

I have a C cable on my desk, the charger is hidden under it, I don't want to replace the cable ever. This one cable can charge my phone, laptop, power bank, earbuds, gaming headset, Nintendo Switch, heck, it powers my soldering iron – of course I don't ever want to buy anything with a different port!

Again, the iPhones have lightning ports. Almost everyone who buys this is going to be an iPhone users.

This is like complaining that the microwave at Best Buy doesn't have a Europlug because you're in Italy and that's what you use. Great, but not important to the actual buyer of the microwave in Milwaukee.
