If there is a USB port and a power port a super parinoid person could never use the USB port, or even fill it with glue. Not an option here.

This is also talking about how combining them also allows for the potential of charger based attacks, a charger is something that absolutely has to be plugged in at some point.

I guess the paranoid user can use an usb condom if so.

Time to make usb-c syncsyop http://syncstop.com/

A paranoid user wouldn't use a power port, either. At least not without whipping out a multimeter first.
