Yes, that's all true. It's also irrelevant, as USB-C devices aren't required to support BC1.2, and the same concern applies to any proprietary signaling method you won't handle. "This thing requires 15W USB-C power source" is easily understood, regardless of existence of >=15W USB-A power bricks using QC3.0 or whatever else.

Supporting BC1.2 in a smartphone won't make it any more complex than it already is (been there done that). We're talking about simple equipment here, where handling USB-C power correctly can be easily done without any ICs.
