I’m confused by this comment. How is lightning better? I cannot think of a single advantage of lightning over USB-C. Is the c port like a few microns wider? That doesn’t seem like it would make it more difficult.
Everything uses C now. I have a lot of lightning cables, but I also have a lot of C cables.
I’ve had to replace 4 USB-C cables that have failed in the past year, and I’ve never replaced a lightning cable. Seriously, the cable from my iPhone 6 Plus has outlasted 4 company cars, and is currently pulling charge duty in number 5.

The tab is on the cable rather then in the device, so if the tab breaks, replace the cable rather then the port on the phone.
Otherwise, they’re kind of the same thing.
It requires less accuracy to insert lightning - more forgiving to/self-correcting wrong angles. Easier to do it in complete darkness.
USB-C is easy to do in complete darkness as well

That’s about the only advantage for me though.
