I do electronics professionally. This is likely because in order to save a bit on BOM costs, the device itself doesn't have the necessary pulldown resistors to signal to turn on VBUS.
USB-A has always-on VBUS while USB-C doesn't. Because the spec allows for always-on VBUS in a USB-A to USB-C cable, some devices just assume that they're always being powered by one of those cables.

I was a contributor to http://alt-f4.blog/ and helped get the site down to 1.2-1.9 MB, depending on thumbnail size.
500KB of that is the background image alone, and each of the 10 thumbnails are ~50KB.
