I adamantly refuse to buy a USB c headset because I'm sure in 2 years there will be a new standard.

USB micro was introduced in 2007 and is only now on its way out.

I'm pretty sure we have at least decade or two of USB-C.

It also got to the point when nothing but laptops and external hard drives need full capability of it so I think it will live for longer.

USB-C is legally mandated in the EU, and Apple finally switched over their entire lineup. It doesn't seem like it's going anywhere any time soon.

This isn’t exactly true. An industry consensus is demanded in the EU, that just happens to be USB-C ATM. The rules are flexible enough to allow for technology advance, as long as everyone does it all at once.

USB 4 uses the same port so it will be around for another 10 years most likely.
