Yes, there are ones that are only USB 2, also some can deliver more power than others. If you want to charge a USB-C notebook for example, you need 100 W rated cables.
They do not all behave the same. I have many of them that are supplied as a charging cable in small electronic devices. These ubiquitous USB-C cables will not perform a data connection with your phone. At all. I have to search for that one cable that I know works for data since it moves around the house.
Don’t you remember the joy of carrying around a dozen proprietary cables. Oh dads cable drawer was great.
Now you need to carry around a dozen USB-C cables that all look identical, but can do different things.
This one can do video, this one can do fast charging but no data at all, this one has fast data transfer…
Are you aware you can buy a 240W/40Gps cable?
Honestly, the idea of pushing 240W through a USB-C cable kind of terrifies me. That’s a lot of power for such little wires…
Huh what? Is this a thing with USB-C cables? I always used the same cable for everything and I’m fine

Same. That’s the whole point of USB C. You buy one good cable and use it for everything.
