hot take: bring back mini USB. mini USB was peak USB connector design.

"you mean micro?" no, I do not

you can make connectors that look reversible from the outside (A, arguably mini), or you can make a fancy reversible connector that a nontrivial number of engineers will half-ass and get wrong (C), or you can use the one that has an obvious orientation so nobody has this problem at all

@emily I am suddenly reminded of the *actually* reversible A and micro-B cable I had at one point, which certainly was a creative way to try and solve this issue
