I finally went through my box of cables and Goodwill'd or threw away stuff that I'm absolutely never going to use. Gotta say, the feeling of going to The Box™ and not having to dig through a million cables to find what you need is pretty nice.

The hardest thing to throw away was the mystery power cables/bricks. Even though everything I own has its power cable with it and labeled with no exceptions, and even though I haven't touched the mystery power cable for 10 years, I still felt like I'd discover its purpose the moment I got rid of it. Hasn't happened yet, but I'm still anxious.

My solution is to have two boxes: one for things i might actually use (USB-C, HDMI, standard power cables), and one for things i'll never use (micro USB power bricks). Keep both obviously
