more expensive imo.

actually the same pins (well one of them , though since the connector is rotationally symmetric you need two anyway) are used for USB Power Delivery and to negotiate what speed regime to operate in .

furthermore , USB On the go , which was introduced in USB 2.0 , offers the same functionality for USB Micro and USB Mini
