USB of All Trades

It is hard not to be a fan of USB. The standard keeps evolving at a great pace, maintaining compatibility with the early devices created some 20 years ago. It has also grown to become the standard for power delivery to all sorts of devices.
It takes some juggling to be able to interconnect the ultra wide selection of things equipped with USB interfaces, although with careful approach the number of plug adapters can fit in a match box.
Here is - what I believe - the USB-of-all-trades set for road warriors, enabling connecting anything to anything in (almost) any direction.

1. It starts with a tiny Type-C to micro-B cable. This cable is extremely versatile, even allows using a (Type-C) phone to charge an accessory such as a smart watch (hey iPhone, can you do this?).
2. The cable of course can be used to connect a Type-C host to any peripheral with a number of simple adapters
3. Lacking a Type-C port on your laptop? Use this USB 3.1 A to Type-C converter.
4. micro USB to 30-pin Apple adapter
5. micro USB to Apple lighting adapter
6. Apple lighting gender changer to power Apple pencil
7. micro USB to Type-C adapter
8. micro USB to mini USB adapter

The only drawback of this set is it does not handle speeds higher than 480Mbps (USB 2.0).
