it needs to match or exceed the rating of the charger, or else you could cause damage to the devices, the cable, or even start a fire.

A factually true story can still be propaganda. And yes, the right is actually constantly masturbating to stories like this.
"All these spoiled rotten kids think they're entitled to all these handouts! Back in my day... we got a tiny piece of cheese and if we asked for more, we got beat! Parents these days are all so soft and..." etc, etc.
I literally hear this shit every day, all day.
Just because you might exist in an echo chamber, doesn't mean it isn't happening.
