It already exists for micro-USB, and USB-C was developed later - evidentially, this claim does not appear to be true.

The law itself may have stifled the creation of other power systems; we may have had micro-usb-G by now without it

Apple is selling phones with Lightning, so it doesn’t seem to be true that they have been required to use micro-USB.
