This is a bit anecdotal. It could simply be you're more tech savvy and/or just care for your electronics better.
Lightning cables are very thin and flimsy, even the third party cables.
At least with USB-C you have a lot of options. I like the Anker fabric cables the best since they allow more bending without breaking.
I recall the same issue on the cables for my old 30-pin connector, and Apple earbuds / in-ear headphones. Don't think it's related to Lightning, just Apple cables
