You shouldn't use this long term.
The cable strain relief (the ribbed part on the end) is nonfunctional because it is hard 3D printed plastic without any give, it's a very easy way to wear out your cable at that spot from the concentrated cable strain.
Boof it!!!
If this were designed in such a way that the metal plates surrounding the connector pins went fairly deep into the plastic casing, this would make for a very durable cable.
Remember parallel connection? You know, that giant ass VGA lookalike that worked like a slower version of USB? Let's make a connector sleeve that looks like that, surely it's not a terrible idea at all even if your phone has a headphone jack (it blocks the headphone jack from being used due to its size).
