The problem is that cables are not clearly marked by speed. Being able to get a $5 slow cable is a good thing.

Unfortunately with USB-C, it seems to be impossible to get those really lightweight thin charge only cables. I really miss those for traveling. My lightest A/micro-B examples even do some slow data, which has occasionally been useful as a contingency.
