I do something largely similar.

It alleviates the anxiety of knowing what cable does what.

I use Apples Thunderbolt 4 or USB-C cables exclusively: if its white its for charging and low data, if its black its for high data.

I’ve been doing this for a few years, but its really costly as those Apple Thunderbolt cables are crazy expensive.

I wish the USB spec had mandated labeling. There must be a lovely label printer they make for cables or something that shouldn’t be too expensive these days. Label a few cables a day, finish the whole house in a jiffy.

LTT or another big YouTuber made a cable and made sure to get it labeled. Also complained how difficult it was to find a supplier willing to make a better cable than usual.
