   In at least one way, it isn't. Lean on a Lightning connector that's plugged   
   into a charger and hanging over a soft armrest with a bare arm, and by   
   the time you feel the electric current (could take a few minutes), the   
   sweat and electricity has thoroughly corroded a contact.   
      
   On USB-C, the contacts are inside, relatively protected.
