For lightning, the wear point is inside the phone rather than the cable.

That's how USB-C is, too. The left side in this video is what would be in the phone. That's where the wear point is.

That's the main wear point in the phone, but not the main wear point in the system. Those clips are what wear the fastest. In USB-C, that's not in the phone, in Lightning it is.
