How did USB-C become the universal charging port for phones? And why isn’t this “universal” ideaology common in all industries?

Take electric tools. If I have a Milwaukee setup (lawn mower,leaf blower etc) and I buy a new drill. If I want to use the batteries I currently have I’ll have to get a Milwaukee drill.

Yes this is good business, but not all industries do this. Why?

Because they are allowed to currently.

I think it should be illegal similar to what the EU did for the cables for phones.

I’m fine with unique proprietary batteries.

There is no excuse for those batteries needing a unique proprietary charger though. It’s anti competitive and it hurts the consumer.
