I've used many plugs and in my opinion, the schuko plug is the one that makes the most sense.
Reverse Polarity (can't use it the wrong way, and you can turn it in case some power adapted is in the way)
also the symmetry makes it look more pleasing
only 2 pins stick out (the ground is in the body, 2 pins are a reduced area of failure in case you drop it.
very good and secure fit
This is my favorite too!
also it looks like a cartoon plug which is fun. However, the minified version that companies make to go in these plugs is truly awful
And as every child here knows, you can just plug it into a pig nose for mobile power. No need for noisy generators, just bring your pig.
