However, it is likely that there will be the same problem we now have, getting all of the DAP Manufacturers to agree on one standard charging cable.
I think it's more likely the power draw from the device being off standard like the OG Nintendo Switch. If the device deviates from USB-C power specs then it's going to be inconsistent for what chargers and cables work.
