That's why USB ports are always worse than a proper outlet. Just take your charging brick with you, what's the problem?
I'm a PD evangelist. Imagine a safer power delivery system that can go directly to the device you want powered. Scale that with fact most of the world could be and should be DC with AC being good just for niche applications like microwaves and mid range transmissions.
If you think USB A vs C outlets are a problem, wait until you see how much of a struggle getting the entire world to use DC instead of AC is like you're suggesting lol
Oh man no doubt, EVs, campers, boats, and some super scaler's get interesting with midscale DC, but trying to find codes of electricians that know about or the safety code for it is a challenge.
