> Lightening hasn't been a competitive standard for like a decade.

Lightning was introduced in 2012. So you're trying to say that it was competitive for just a year?

Of course that's bullshit.

> High power charging standards were around since 2012 at least.

And those standards (multiple) are? You're probably referring to Power Delivery which was finalised the year Lightning was released? Or the finally upgraded versions of Power Delivery that only appeared with USB-C (that mess of a standard where you don't even know if a cable is capable of doing anything)?
