And? You're actually just accidentally pointing out how fucked up it is that they chose not to implement it on phones.
All that means is that they think certain ports have certain purposes. I don’t think that’s the win you think it is. Why not just have everything be an rj45 port then? Clearly lightning has an advantage in phone ports, as numerous others have listed.
