The one accesory I would recommend with the Deck
It's a simple adapter USB-C male to female, in an angle, making the cable go behind the Deck, so it doesn't wiggle on top.

Can you clarify what the problem is that this solves? Your charging cable wiggles too much when it is plugged into the top? If so, I don’t appear to have that issue at least that I’ve noticed.
It just changes the direction of the cable so instead of sticking straight up the cable gets redirected and now is nearly behind the deck and flowing down.
Exactly
Where it’s going to be bent by the table or whatever it’s resting on anyways?
Presumably the hand grips on the deck keep enough of a gap under the deck to keep this from being an issue.
Okay, if it’s laying down what difference does it make? The use case is a stand where gravity could affect the cable.
What other use case is there other than a stand? If you’re playing with it plugged in, it doesn’t matter what you’re doing, you’re going to be damaging the port.
The one thing people hated about the switch is downward socket, now we are intentionally adding it our decks…?
It helps a lot when wanting to play on the deck while also charging it.
If you’re moving it, nothing you do will prevent port damage, that’s quite literally the one thing you shouldn’t do to preserve the ports life span….
If you can’t put the thing down to charge it, invest in a stand a controller instead of paying for it later on, or suck it up and let it charge for a bit instead of damaging your shit because you’re impatient or don’t want to get the right stuff…
Why are you acting so hostile over this like it's some big thing? It's just a connector that some people like.
What they said, but yes also the wriggling. It's probably fine for now, but I have had devices where the port did get worn out that way after years of use and just incidental wiggling and that was enough to make the port extremely loose and jiggly.
