While that is mostly true, I do have several USBC devices that refuse to charge with a name brand 65 watt charger I have, but they just love the cheap dollar store 5 watt versions.
Oh, my powerbank charges my laptop through the high-power usb specifically marked “PD”, and that usb doesn’t charge my bike lights - the other “usual” 15w ones do. And many usb hubs also have something like this written on them.
What I’m saying is that I’m only against the picture showing 20 Usb-c ports telling that they are all different. I would divide slots and cables in 3 groups:
“oh, this one doesn’t show fast charging”,
“yay, this one supports fast charging”,
and “this thing has “100000W” written on it and it charges my laptop”.
And you usually can easily distinguish them. Like, a thin cable probably won’t do the fast charging thing

I have a few devices that have usb-c but only charge off an A-to-C cable. Presumably no charging circuit to negotiate with usb-C chargers.
All it would have taken are 2 resistors…
