And it's likely at least a usb 3 controller in it just limited to 2.0 speeds. Why even bother

This isn't all that weird. Most USB-C cables sold as "charging cables" are only wired up with 4-pin USB 2.0, because it keeps costs down for a product that wasn't designed for data.

And most people never transfer data do/from their phones with USB anyway, in a world of wireless protocols.
