Wat?
How do planned obsolescence have anything to do with using a standardized plug for a charger?
The main reason such a plug would be replaced is simply because next to an usb plug, the magsafe must be crazy expensive.
By the way, usb-c magnetic power plugs and cables do exist. ( search for "breaksafe" )
