> wear to be in the connector and not the device.
I think this was a typo and you meant to say “cable connector (plug), not device connector (socket)”.
It’s a good design and specifically designed to avoid a USB mini A design botch in which the device side would wear out before the cable side did.
FWIW Apple is a USB member and participated in the USB-C design, including learning from lightning (which was comtemporaneously secretly under way). This is like Intel and IEEE-754
