You realize that nowhere in the “mandate” are any speed requirements and most cheap USB C cords only support USB2 speeds?

Practically, I'd be really really surprised if Apple moved to USB-C but still keep USB 2 speeds.

Moreover, even the cheapest USB-C devices and cables I've seen happily work over USB 3 and I've yet to see anything with USB-C form factor that doesn't support USB 3 even if it's not mandatory.
