Looking one time each way before crossing a road very clearly assumes you have seen every danger from one glance, otherwise you wouldn’t be confident in crossing the road.

You’re presuming people are paying attention to everything all of the time, which they don’t. Humans need that extra level of redundancy to mitigate our own shortcomings. Also, we look twice right as well! Once while standing still, the second time instinctively when you’re already crossing in case something changed. Would you be required to do this 100% of the time? Probably not, but learning from a young age you can’t trust one look is good practice in more ways than one.

When apple changed to lightning it was in the middle of the accessory hype where there were loads of accessories using the 30-pin. People where outraged because they could no longer use any of their accessories. Apple then commited to lightning for 10 years in order to sooth the public image. This was 11 years ago, and they didn’t switch last year to cut costs, but I’d argue it only overstayed it’s welcome for a year.
