I don’t understand how this port is going to connect with a cable. I want to see this in person but it looks cool in the ad

That section is inside the pencil when you're using it, and you pull it out when you need to charge the pencil (probably once a week or so).

It's been done before with other styluses - for example the Zagg one. Scroll down in this article for photos with cable plugged in: https://www.seriousinsights.net/zagg-pro-stylus-review/

Ah yeah that makes sense—I get it now. I think I couldn’t imagine how deep the plug would need to be compared to the pencil circumference.
