This is coming across as more than a bit delusional. Adding a new standard to a charger is not “forcing” anyone to avoid other chargers in any sense. AVS adds functionality to this charger, it doesn’t take it away from other ones.

If AVS is only part of the USB-C PD spec over 100W then yes Apple is doing something non-standard and not "adding a new standard." They're going to make 3rd party charger providers add some Apple-specific logic that isn't in the PD spec and isn't used by any other devices if this is true.

If this is true, then if you own a 3rd party charger that is up-to-date with the very latest USB PD specs, your charger is going to charge an iPhone 17/Air/17 Pro more slowly than buying Apple's new charger.

(I don't claim to know the technical details of whether AVS is part of the spec below 100W or not, I am just going by the comments in this thread and speaking of the hypothetical)
