Because 10gbps+ cables are more expensive to make.
They exist, you just have to be willing to spend more for them. You'd rather these less expensive options didn't exist and you & everyone else had to pay $30 for a USB 3.0+ data cable just to charge? No thanks.
It's a very welcome addition, and a strong reason to finally upgrade for many that have been holding onto older iPhones for 3-5+ years (alongside everything else to be gained). One cable to rule them all, finally (nearly) completing Apple's transition to USB-C. They're on the USB IF (implementers forum), guys... Sure money was a motivating factor, but it also didn't hurt to wait a little longer until USB-C chargers were ubiquitous to finally switch either.. especially as some manufacturers are no longer including wall chargers with their phones anymore.
To others in this thread - trash iPhones all you want, but the typical Android phone manufacturer stops providing software/security updates for their phones after 2 years - that's less than HALF of how long iPhones usually receive updates (~5 years). They're still bringing major updates to their phones from 2018.
iPhone Pro shoulda have usbc when iPad Pro got release. Now theres lighting to usbc adapters to avoid trashing lighting cables

They don't care if you buy their cable, 1.50 per certified is money in the bank to own a standard. Just ask Qualcomm, broadcom, or anyone else who owns IP.

They are now forced to make iPhones repairable, hence the easy to remove back glass.
Apple has also been FORCED to make batteries changeable by 2024/2025.
If you left it up to Apple you would never get ANY of this
1) Using a laptop which has a USB 3.1 Gen 2 USB-C / TB3 port (supporting up to 10gbps via USB-C), connected an NVME (M.2 Gen 3) drive to the laptop using the following enclosure (capable of up to USB 3.2 GEN 2 speeds):
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MNFH1PX/
2) On the laptop, setup a 4GB RAM drive (to eliminate bottlenecks of writing data to internal HDDs / SSDs)
3) Copied a ~1.75GB file from the NVME drive (in the external enclosure) to the RAM DRIVE using the Basesailor cable advertised in this thread. Speed never exceeded 40MB/sec (which is 320mpbs), typically stayed in the 37MB-38MB/sec range. Copy took at least 10 seconds, maybe even as long as 30 seconds.
4) Disconnected the NVME drive, connected the native USB-C cable it came with (which is perhaps 6 inches long, so significantly shorter than the Basesailor cable)
5) Copied a different file that was over 1.8GB in size from the external NVME drive to the RAM drive. Copy completed so fast (under 1 second), was unable to see the data transfer speed.
6) Copied both the 1.75GB and 1.8GB files to the RAM drive next. Copy once again completed fast (under 2 seconds).
Based on the rudimentary tests above, this Basesailor cable is indeed USB 2.0, and for that reason I'll be returning it. The product description listing 5gbps as its max data transfer rate is incorrect.
