Ordered a set of rechargeable AA batteries and charger. They're well reviewed and a decent brand. Specifically wanted the charger since it has USB input rather than 120v so I could top the batteries off from my laptop / power bank as they'll be used for my wireless KB/mouse. The product description only said "USB input" and didn't specify what flavor. Being 2025, you expect USB-C.

Received them today, and they use micro USB input. Now I have to keep yet another cable in my bag. Day mildly ruined.

You could make the opposite argument here too. If OP no longer has any USB micro devices due to them phasing out over the last 10+ years (most portable consumer electronics wear out over that time), they'll now need to consume more by buying extra cables rather than reusing what they already have.
