The have active electronics in them so that if any non-apple right angle connectors are used it limits them to usb 1.0 speeds and 5v 0.5A power delivery. It's for your safety.

It’s for your safety.

That new surface is very risky, and if you don't use the right connector it might catch the whole mini on fire!
