USB-C now has the same connector directionality problem that USB-A does

Id like to think it would still work both ways mechanically, but would be one sided electrically.

Depending on the device side connector and how the PCB is designed it actually can be orientation-dependent.

Funnily enough, there are cases where that occurs. The Zed Mini is a great example, where the orientation of the cable affects it's ability to fully utilise USB bandwidth. I don't recall the reason off the top of my head, but I have shared stories with a number of people in the computer vision sector who have torn their hair out over those cameras only to discover that they don't work properly when the cable is "upside down"
