I also feel like you're missing something.

Literally every other company conformed to USB - C, even apple has USB-C on the other end of the cable and on the iPads.

This way you have a standard data/charging plug which is very helpful for everyday logistics, the extra dongle proposition is just absurd. Those are constantly breaking and I guess they have some loss because of it.

Dongle might be the wrong word, because what I’m talking about can’t really break.

My portable battery comes with a wire. One end of the wire is a standard USB port. The other end of the wire splits into three: one for iPhone, one for standard USB, and one other. Wires like this are available in any gas station and cost may $5-10 bucks.
