Speaking as an Apple user - I am heavily invested in their ecosystem - I am extremely happy that Lightning is on death’s door. I fully agree with the EU and I am very grateful to them for forcing Apple’s hand.
That being said, your point about USB-A falls apart when you consider any situation where your vision is even partially obstructed. Such as; back of the computer, back of your monitors, a dock unless you’re holding it, etc etc.

You don't need to check female port orientation, it's always the same, pins inside the port are looking at the board the connector is soldered to. Of course, unless manufacturer decided to do something funny, but no standard is protected from that.
Yeah, but I'm fucking stupid and can never remember that shit. Bet ya didn't think of that huh???
You can't fix stupid.
Except they could, by making USB-C standard. Now even though I'm dumb as fuck I never have to remember plug orientation!
