Yeah, it’s nice, I just don’t think that feature is worth upgrading for most people.

Face ID and Apple Pay were jumps forward in the way that people use their phones and were quite exciting, introducing USB C is just backtracking.

You are the minority then. If you do a poll on what would make people buy a new iPhone it will be the usb c connection.

Despite what they’d say on a poll, if you actually forced people to buy a new phone if they answered yes then a majority would stick with what they’ve got.
