I am not knocking usb-c. It would actually be nice if the standards were move unforced so one could be gauranteed exactly which version they were getting.
My issue is exactly what you're saying about material science and not knowing what might come along and what it would take to overcome the EU standards. I predict they will need to revise the rules before anything would be able to meet the current standards by it'll be 15+ years before we know it.
I think we're more likely to go fully wireless before there is enough progress in material science to make phones too slim for USB-C while also being sturdy enough for everyday use of the average person.
