Previous iphone models are not gonna disappear over night, and there are hundreds of millions of them out there. People are still using iphone 6 and 7 till this day. Lightning cables and accessories are still gonna be made and sold for years to come.

Right? All my old phones go to my wife, and her old phones go to the in-laws, etc etc. The cables can be handed over along with the phone.
