You're incorrect. Load is negotiated during cabling process.

Sure a bad USB-C cable that doesn't negotiate properly may be a danger, but likely the Macbook simply won't charge on such a cable.

I trust Apple knows what they're dealing with (in regards to poor 3rd party cabling) and not end up like a Note7 situation.
