    Not talking about the cable, yes you do want a durable cable, but end of the day, your cable goes bad you’re out 10-20 dollars tops. On the other hand if something happens to the port you’re out potentially a couple hundred dollars getting it repaired. Many people will even just replace the device at that point. The design of the lightning port seems much more robust than USB-C.
