So up until now, phone, blue tooth, Kindle, have all used the same cord, and now all of a sudden we have a crayon of a different colour. ...

Anyone have any input, or have I once again been spending time on another planet?

Don't know about the law, but I do know that I set up a charging station with four different cords. I used Bulldog paper clamps fastened to the edge of a shelf with one cord routed through the 'wing' of each clamp and the wires going behind the shelf to keep them out of the way. There is a Lightning cord for an iPhone 5 and mini-iPad, a 30-pin plug for a regular iPad, and two micro USB plugs for the e-readers. No wiring visible unless something it plugged in. Only the plugs can be seen sticking up. This image isn't mine, but it's what I am using.
