I searched as you suggest, everything that I can find appears to
put the VGA signals on a DB15 connector, not a USB-C connector.

What I am seeking evidence for (just out of simple WTF curiosity :)
is that somewhere in the world there exists a USB-C connector
that carries VGA analog signals.

Not an adapter, a connector.

I don't want one, I don't need one, and I don't even care except for
entertainment, I just struggle to believe that such a thing exists until
I see a picture or a document :)
