Does your power cord end in a long stiff lever as described? If not,
that may explain your good fortune.

Or maybe you never move your laptop so that the cord never wiggles the
jack?

If you look at the physics of the long lever stuck into the flimsy
jack, it's hard to conclude that "it's just me."




Or perhaps you have latent hand-eye coordination and fine motor
deficiencies from childhood.
