Most customers want to keep the same connector, because they already have chargers and cables, and sometimes even accessories, for it.
USB-C is better in the long run, but that doesn't make it better now.
The sooner they switch to USB-C, the less painful it's going to be. It's only a matter of when.
It's only a matter of courage.

Nope. As time goes on, more people will have more USB-C cables and chargers, from other devices. The pain will *decrease* the longer they push it out.
The pain will increase since more lightning garbage accessories will be discarded. Have they made the switch 3 years ago we wouldn't be talking about lightning anymore.
