  I’m discussing how it connects to the wall. You would be the second person to somehow misconstrue that. Wall outlets should not become USB.

      I was never at any point talking about barreljack or any other intermediary power supply adapters for the devices. You are the one talking about that. Go talk to somebody else about it. I am talking about the potential of USB becoming so commonplace as a means of power supply that wall outlets start using it as a standard, which would be bad.

        Correct, you was talking about how it is scary for you that USB can be used not only to charge device, but also to transfer data. To which I replied even barrel jack can be used for transfering data.

        Even more: you can use USB PD 2.0(but not 3.1, at least not out of box) over barrel jack.
