Yes, with standardization we trade off innovation for other benefits.
Apple could provide extra features when an Apple charger is used with an
Apple phone, even if it will still work with a non-Apple phones.

Yes, when a standard is outdated, we revise or replace it.
But is this standardization is really needed for phone chargers?
Customers are unlikely to switch between Apple and Android, so they can
use their old charger.
Having two common types of charge socket is a lot better than the old
days of one, or more, for each phone manufacturer.
