See it's at this point I get lost haha, but I think I'm starting to understand the gist of it

There is zero technical reason to limit the speeds. Apple is just being an asshole and wants to misrepresent USB-C to their customers. Because again, Apple are assholes.

Apple is using the last year's Pro chip in this year's standard iPhone. That doesn't have USB 3 support. They could have added a USB 3 chip for that but it's Apple.

The newest a17 bionic chip has USB 3 support built in. It is only present in iPhone Pro hence USB 3 support for the cable.
