I own dozens of USB-C and lightning devices.
In half of my USB-C devices, like my macbook pro, ports have loosened to the point where cables don’t stay in, USBs and attachments have become wiggly, etc. USB-Ca design relies purely on friction, and when you use the ports frequently that friction slowly disappears. Plus, the ports are larger than lightning ports.
Lightning’s design causes it to snap into place because it has grooves that fit the cable tip, making it more secure, satisfying, and easy to use. I have never had an issue with a lighting port becoming loose, and I cannot break the inner port as easily as I can with USB-C.
The fact that I have to carry around an extra cable does not bother me at all, it is a few extra ounces in my bag and I feel like detractors of lightning exaggerate the inconvenience of having another cable.
I hope Apple keeps the lightning port forever.
