What I meant is that even low end usb is going to be capable of these speeds and power. Atm you’ll find lots of really cheap USB C cables not capable of that. Often using 2.0 as a standard. And: even if they claim they do 240W doesn’t mean they really do.
The cheaper it gets, the less it’ll be relevant to look up the specs of the cables.
Minimum spec USB C cables will always remain relevant no matter the price. They are thinner, lighter, more flexible and more durable due to having far fewer and thinner conductors within them, together with less shielding.
The price isn’t the issue. Right now you can find minimum spec USB C cables that are more expensive than the cheapest maximum spec cables.
A max spec cable costs maybe 10-20 cents more to make than a min spec cable. The only reason they are sold with a significant markup is because people pay for it.
How much cheaper do you want it? I can find 40GBit/s USB 4 240W cables for €10 on Amazon.
