I did search but its too spread out.

So why is Power Delivery significantly more expensive? I accept it should be a little more expensive. Example above two recently shipping products, a 15000mAh 2-port Type A out, MicroB input “traditional” non-PD non-C product with more capacity, is more expensive than a 10000mAh two-port, USB PD input, USB PD output, 12W Type A output?
You got one fewer LG 21700 $7 cell and just faster electronics? So Anker’s costs are $11 higher for the electronics to just move up to 28W from 15W?
Do you think Anker is price gouging PD users? PD devices generally larger higher-end so Anker reckons they can charge more for PD chargers?
Or is it really so much more expensive in reality?
