Yet so many, including yourself, if I remember correctly, have mentioned data transfer speeds as the issue you seek to have addressed. The goal posts seem to be dancing around the field.
As for cables, I already linked you a solution. Or if USBC was that important you’d buy a USBC equipped phone. Oh, and iPad remains Lightning.
Again, as I said it’s more about regulators dictating technology choices rather than allowing market forces to operate freely. The most probable long term outcome is the stifling of innovation since the regulation quashes any incentive for a company to do the R&D to create something new an unforeseen.
I imagine Apple would’ve moved to USBC in time by themselves. Now the EU will be stuck there, for all practical purposes, and likely the rest of the world.

All many years later than without a regulated charge connector type.
