What's the problem with the port? It's considerably less prone to accumulate debris in my experience.

I used to clean at least 2-3 USB-C ports a day, 5 days a week, at my shop. I cleaned plenty of Lightning ports too, neither really is less prone than the other to dust ingress. Lightning is easier to clean though, since you don’t have to worry about accidentally snapping the center post like you do in USB-C.
