I suspect you misread the legislation.

Anyone who currently has a lightening cable/phone wont need to change it ;)

And yes, eventually it will lead to e-waste as people replace their Lightening based phones with USB-C, but didn't the same thing take place with the 30 pin dock connector?

At least after this apple wont need dongles like this beauty : https://www.apple.com/ca/shop/product/MQLU3AM/A/usb-c-to-app...
