Micro HDMI is basically a non working connector. It baffles me how it was even approved. One of the requirements of a connector is to work. Micro HDMI doesn't work. Sure, it might look like it's working (if you take a picture of a connected device) but in practice it doesn't work. Just a slight touch and you're losing signal. Immediately one might think that their connector, cable or device are broken. And this is a very valid guess. But the connector is not broken by accident, it was broken by design. A consumer connector should not require an additional exoskeleton to work. It means it's broken by design if it does.
