Thank you for recognizing the perspective: holy downvotes! Anyway, the lightning cable design did/does allow it so people probably are used to doing it somewhat e.g. in bed. It was the one upside of lightning IMO.

Don't get me wrong: I do welcome USB-C but I hope Apple warns people or begins to make the rear glass out of the stronger material of the front glass if they haven't already.
