Not necessarily. If you come up with such a superior plug, you can easily have it sold on the 1st largest market in the world.

Not everything has to be sold in EU, there are plenty of things not available across all markets.

No, I can't. I need to sell it on both markets to make it profitable. There's no way to have that large margins it could sell just in the US.

If you need to sell it on both markets and can't have two production lines, I guess your product will have USB-C port and your superior charging port, like the new MacBooks having type-C and magsafe.

And that's supposed to be good? I really don't understand this world...

IF you can't be profitable at anything other than global scale, maybe your (wholly hypothetical) invention is not that great.
