I know it's common but it's not a problem with USB-C. It's a problem with manufacturers implementing non-standard power requirements. My go-to example is Nintendo Switch's off spec 5/15V at 2.6A (39W) causing overheating, melting and possible ignition of chargers and docks supplying on spec 20V at 1.95A (39W). Just because it's common does not mean these devices are not off spec. They ARE off spec, and the only things you can do are replace with on spec kit or using the matching off spec power supplies.
