Have you tried using descriptive layer names like layer 1, later 2, later 3?

That means that detection was added explicitly because this prank was done enough that it was worth it to add.

Theoretically yes, but I’m having a very hard time even finding peripherals with male lightning ports when I searched out of curiosity, and the few I saw were the same price as this adapter or cheaper. Every single peripheral I found that has a male lightning port uses it for the purpose of making it sit flush against the phone, otherwise it would have made more sense to simply buy a USB-C accessory and use a C to lightning cable. This adapter removes the streamlined nature of those peripherals.

I’m sure there’s some rare use case where this adapter makes sense, so I don’t literally mean nobody would ever need this in any circumstance, but since the need for it would be so small I think the heightened price makes sense since there would be very little demand.

Why would anyone ever need this?
