Type-A is theoretically the easiest and cheapest thing to manufacture the male end of.
Type C has such a satisfying click when plugging something in.
I couldn't plug in an adaptor in what seemed to be the correct way, in a Sri Lankan hotel (type M), but it went in ok when I rotated it. As soon as it went in, the power went out in the entire hotel. It was out for the rest of the night, and as I went up the street the next morning, there was a crew working on a transformer a few blocks away. Coincidence?
Also, at the place I was working, there were 2 other types of power plug than type M. WTF?
B is mounted upside down. Also the prongs get bent easily. So definitely not B.
Everything else falls out with a light breeze, G is the way forward.
