    I guess if a new/better connector comes along we have to wait for the EU to give everyone permission to move the technology forward?

    The EU is mandating open standards, not specific open standards.

    If a new and better connector comes around they are welcome/encouraged to use it. As long as it’s an open standard and not proprietary e-waste generating junk
