I switched over to magnetic charging cables a few years back, and would never look back. Keeps the port protected, protects against wear out, and the cables are now universal with Micro USB and lightning devices.
Keep them clean. There’s no more inherent rush than a regular connector, since the magnetic ones are just the same with a magnet holding them in place instead of friction.
Also, if they were to break, it’s far easier to replace them instead of the port on the phone. I recommend the ones that are just adapters and not the whole cables though, since they let you use the cables you already own.

I use the ones that add on to an existing cable, that way I’m not bound to one cable type. Snatched like 25 of them when they were $2 on AE.
Clever, I haven’t come across that.
How do you the plugs eliminate fire risk?

Do they break fast charging?
Nope, far charging works just fine, though you do have to be selective if you want video passthrough, since not all of them have that feature.
Apple devices also don’t always recognize that the cable is capable and will supposedly limit functionality for the data connection.
