Apple has been pushing users away from transferring data over cable for years anyway. Most users will sync files over wifi.

Annoying, as that should be the users choice, but I doubt the average iPhone user will even notice. Iirc the lightning connector was also limited to USB 2.0 speeds and only some particular power users ever complained about that.
