You can use your old USB-A to C cables, it’s not mandatory to use the new cables. For me, they often stay in the box, because all of my chargers already have cables anyway.
Everything else you said it’s just examples of how other manufacturers still bundle e-waste. This is in no way a counter-argument. I’m not saying companies aren’t assholes, the problem isn’t that they don’t include chargers. The problem is that they exclude chargers and keep the price the same without any significant improvements to the phone itself.
Vast majority of buyers these days already have chargers, and the bundled charger will only bump the price, only to be chucked into a drawer to stay there forever. If a consumer does need a charger, there are plenty good options on the market with multi-port options.
