      This is reductive. It is a physical connector and a bevy of specifications. Take the Apple power bricks for MBPs for example. The move to usb-c saw a bunch of specification inclusions that they could have left out. That brick will basically charge any usb device. Now that’s one part of the spec, this article covers more and it is entirely valid.

      One could argue that USB-C (the connector) implied support for modern features/version of the USB protocol.
