No. I'm guessing that people may be called upon to pack up their gear and work in a place they didn't expect to be working. Or that they may need to improvise solutions in a hurry with whatever they've got handy. So having a bag full of chargers and cables and adapters and everything else just seems like good/easy/cheap preparation. (I think a lot of us already have such a bag, it's just that entropy sets in and the way it was once packed it probably not the way it's packed today.) I'm not really "expecting" anything other than suboptimal conditions. ---rsk
