Static is bc of the scrawny wires though.

Anyway, usb-c receptacles could be countersunk to help that fumbling problem. Right angle connectors could help, too.

You still have the problem of temporarily connecting every pin as you plug it in. USB-C has 24 pins and all are used. That would be a TRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRS connector.
