> I (deliberately) haven’t bought a consumer electronic device that still uses Micro USB in years so don’t accumulate those cables for free anymore like with USB-C.
I guess you’re not gonna be buying a Pi Pico 2, then. So why are you complaining about something you aren’t going to use?
Even if you interpreted that sentence right, that's not a reasonable rebuttal. If a feature stops someone from buying a product, then it makes sense to complain about the feature. Their non-purchase doesn't invalidate the complaint. It's only when someone isn't interested in the category at all that complaints lose their value.
I think you misread what I wrote: consumer electronic device
Dev boards or niche specialized hardware are about the only thing I've willingly bought with Micro USB in 4+ years. As much as I try to avoid it given my preference for USB-C, sometimes I don't have a good alternative available.

Because it looks like a great upgrade to my RP2040-Zero boards that I would like to buy but I really dislike the choice of connector? What is wrong with that?
