This kind of law practically guarantees there will be no usb-D, E, or X. It hardcodes inertia
It already exists for micro-USB, and USB-C was developed later - evidentially, this claim does not appear to be true.

I switched from Android to to iPhone SE- mostly as a matter of longevity and relatively cheap repair prices. Lighting is not better, it slides out more easily, it’s connections are less consistent (if you’re using a headphone adapter you will get disconnects), and it just doesn’t feel as good.
Physically Lightning is better - way more robust and resistant to potential damage. There's literally no way you damage connector on normal daily usage.
I do know that I can’t really use headphones with my iPhone because the experience blows because they disconnect. I do know that often my phone isn’t charged because the connection from the charger wasn’t good. C type is a better experience and the only time I’ve had a defective or damaged C port was on a sub $100 BLU phone
I would support more of this kind of thing.
Every once in a while, we can bump the connector and get real gains along with savings due to far better alignment between devices and the various connections they require.
First require uniformity of function (without regard for appropriateness, future innovation, etc). Second, require specific sources (those with political connections) because “reasons”. USB-c chargers today, usb-c chargers from FaviCorp tomorrow. Zero power systems innovation the day after that. Please don’t let politicians dictate technical design decisions.

I don’t damage my ports I don’t have a frame of reference for them not being robust. I do know that I can’t really use headphones with my iPhone because the experience blows because they disconnect.

I've had to replace my USB C cables a bajillion times but never once had to replace my iphone cable. I think it's because iPhone cable has the male adaptor with the female on the device, which is a lot simpler and less prone to debris, which is what you want with a cable that gets tossed around. The USB C cables has the female adaptor on the cable which accumulates debris and moisture. USB C also oddly has the male a…
Lightning port, compared to USB C, is almost indestructible. There's no way you damage it by pulling cable sideways. Do the same with USB... Apple should upgrade Lightning to fully support USB C protocol but leave connector as is. But we'll see how they respond to another senseless EU idea...
