IIUC USB-C puts less mechanical stress on the port and more on the cable connector, so instead of the port breaking the cable should break.

Circular connectors wouldn't be backwards-compatible either, and would be much harder to manufacture at the size of USB-C. I actually can't think of circular connectors with more than 2 data channels that can be plugged in in any rotation - do you have an example? All the ones I can think of (PS/2, XLR) have a set orientation.

Man, God of War Ragnarok was a fun game. Too bad they didn't want me to pay for it.

Who the fuck wants Carmilla of Styria to win. She'll never be satisfied, always clawing for more. There is no winning with her, only not having lost so far.

Let's go with the Cambridge definition:

a perfect society in which people work well with each other and are happy

The Oxford Languages definition is incomplete enough to not be a valid counter argument - "perfect" doesn't mean everyone 100% gets what they want. The only sensible interpretation is "perfect" from a societal perspective.

But if yes, then as long as current conditions meet anyone’s definition of utopia, then we’re all living in one.

No, Utopia has a defined set of meanings. If current conditions meet someone's definition of Utopia, but doesn't meet the defined set of meanings, it doesn't mean current conditions are Utopia.

"Utopia" doesn't mean everyone gets what they want. People can want things to be worse while still living in a Utopia.

Pretty much no way to do so without losing most USB-C benefits.

Power only/power and data already existed with Micro USB, so that part didn't get too much worse.
