    Delusion is strong in this one.

    “Worn out cable…. Ect ect fallacy about power loss.”

    Nice straw man argument, you are really reaching. Not only will it never happen to get close to the wireless waste but we are talking about Brand new future device.

    I abuse my charging port with headphones, 5 years not replaced. This still would not come close to the loss.

    it’s at least 50% power loss over wireless. At minimum.

      I’m not talking about “resistance change in a cord blah blah”. I’m talking about the power and resources to manufacture and ship a new phone, after your old phone fails prematurely. The kilowatt-hours being poured into a phone’s battery over its service life are a miniscule part of its TCO. Doubling that makes it two pittances.
