And never, ever, did anyone complain about getting the orientation wrong with DIN connectors.
Hah! Hardly. I have plenty of memories of endlessly rotating mouse and keyboard connectors as I reached behind a computer trying to insert it blindly, and somehow having to try half a dozen times before it finally found just the right orientation.
There’s also the issue on the older, large DIN connectors of pins getting bent or broken.
We moved on from those things for darn good reason, and I for one have no interest in going back.
