That table doesn't seem quite right:

- Is a Thunderbolt 4 certified cable really not allowed to support 240W, i.e., does it have to be restricted to 100W?

- "Minimum of 15W" is a Thunderbolt laptop/device port property, as far as I know, but any cable with two USB-C connectors needs to, at a minimum, support 60W (3A@20V).

Generally, "power delivery" doesn't clarify whether that's the minimum/maximum capabilities of the cable, source, or sink port.
