A large part of it is basic physics. A Micro-B connector like [0] is way easier to damage than a C connector like [1] because it is less solidly mounted to the PCB, and because it has a shorter distance from the fulcrum to the furthest mounting point.
I have accidentally ripped off Micro-B connectors, but ripping off a C one usually requires a nontrivial amount of force.
