It is a bad thing as it happened just at a transitional period in chargers. If it was just another USB A connector, then it wouldn’t have been an issue. But we are now in the transition of USB C chargers and most people don’t have a “box of them”.
Newer devices are advertising that they have ever faster charging options, but these need the newer USB C connectors to reach these advertised speeds, which as I mentioned, most people don’t already have. So you are stuck buying another thing to use what they were advertised as having.
