I do not really have a body for this. I was not aware that this is a thing and still feel like this is bs, but maybe there is an actual explanation for HDMI Forum's decision that I am missing.

HDMI does not have screws.

Yeah, it's a pretty bad connector.

With cinema camera accessories, we have these “locking” USB C plugs. They have these notches that help stay in the port. I say it’s about 2.5x more firm and doesn’t wiggle much.

Like the old USB micros sort of?

I think the micro B had hooks on them? Are you talking about that? The USB C plugs I’m referring to had these dimples on the skinny side and the bumps are in the port.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking of.
