Warning: Damage from Micro USB Cable

Just a tip for you guys. I just damaged my Bionic's Micro USB port. I was connecting the cable to charge it, and I was inserting the cable correctly. But, apparently, the port on the Bionic is not fortified well, and when I accidentally twisted the cable slightly (like 2 milimeters), it cracked the black plastic surrounding the port.

I take responsibility for this, but I can't help but wonder why one of the most used features of the phone (charging the damn thing) is not built sturdy. On closer inspection of the plastic, I see that it is extremely thin.

Anyways, be super careful when connecting a USB cable.
