It's also not an issue on every other USB c controller made.

It's an apple issue because Apple made poor choices because Apple insists they have to be different in a special broken way. Because people like you are too far up your own ass to know any better.

Correct. iPhone 14 and under are not affected because they don't have the texas instruments usb-c controllers. The mandated change brought about the new requirement. They had to move to a less researched, and obviously less secure controller. Itll get better as we go, but its going to be hell for a while as these new flaws are found.
