Why include a cable at all? I have a bucket full of cables that came with various devices, that I'll never use.

Right. Apple has all those check boxes when you order on the Store. Why not just add a box "Do you need a cable?". When I bought my last iMac in 2017 Apple insisted that I take a keyboard and trackpad in spite of my already having a pair of each. No option for "no mouse or keyboard". So they sit in my equipment box.
 
Can we have a Braided USB to USB-C, please? I only prefer to charge my iPhone with a 5W Apple adapter. Slow Charging! I need this cable with USB-C.

Buy ikea cables, they are back to working like every other usbA in ipados 17 b6 so might work in release 😅
 
You're assuming they're tossing in cables with the phone. I'm betting they'll be an accessory. Why make the iPhone box bigger, right Tim!

"And for just $39.99 at the Apple Store,we think you're going to love it!"
I predicted it! LOL

Where's my payday or credit MR!

My co-workers were consistently losing their cables and other bits, so they couldn't charge their phones. Fewer people have extras than you might imagine.
