Surely, this can't be a coincidence.

I still don't understand why they designed the case like this, the charger should easily fit inside without this "hole"
Not that I complain, they give everyone a case with the console, which is awesome but I personally got a slightly bigger one with enough room to store the charger, wireless earbuds and a cloth for the screen.
Yeah, the Stream Controller case has internal compartments for the accessories, and it does feel more contained.
My guess is this was an easier/cheaper case solution that also gave people easy external storage access—you don't have to open the case to get the accessories. I think I prefer internal, so I'll be getting a different case eventually, too.
I use a third party case with an internal compartment, and I think I prefer external. When I am out and about, not using my Deck, and want to pull out my charger to charge my phone or something, I have to pull out the Deck in order to get to that compartment. If the compartment were on the outside of the case, it would be simpler to get to.
With that said, I do not trust the elastic strap on the official case to keep things secure out there. So I keep using my third party case.
