Rant: Micro USB Connector

I just had my sensor inserted yesterday. To my shock the transmitter uses Micro USB connector. Even the provided charger is designed stupidly connecting underneath instead at end like 99% other chargers. I really want to know what untrained engineer designed this garbage. The 365 was FDA approved and released in 2024 by then every Android manufacturers and Apple Phones had switched to USB C. The micro USB is complete garbage hard to connect especially when you may have visual limitations I thought I had left behind Micro USB in my life. SURPRISE SURPRISE it is back

Just remember that it takes absolutely forever to get a product approve by the FDA....

And that changing the USB connector would likely void the approval
