All cables have issues. One thing I see often only with iPhone cables are they're always falling apart, especially the outer parts near the end.
My household all has iPhones but me. They go through at minimum 3 a year
I'm still on the same USB C cable I kept from my pixel 1, and I use it on my 7, still use the same car charging cord from 7 years ago too
This is a bit anecdotal. It could simply be you're more tech savvy and/or just care for your electronics better.
I recall the same issue on the cables for my old 30-pin connector, and Apple earbuds / in-ear headphones. Don't think it's related to Lightning, just Apple cables
