@codl if you have a usb c cable working only sometimes, it's possible that half the cable has failed (specifically one of the CC lines failed, i think), which would make it only work in one orientation. i think.
some super cheap cables only work in one orientation to begin with, which is annoying

@codl i'm not 100% sure how this failure mode happens? it may also require a failure or inadvisable design shortcut taken on the device as well

@Felthry huh! not the case on this cable (it's just sensitive to jiggling) but, that's interesting
