They meant cables in spec with the USB specification at the time usb-a was new.
Now with usb-c, it’s kinda moot, as most cables are male to male anyway… of course that means we’re more likely to see USB-C female to female adopters now
USB-C female to female adapters also are out of spec. The USB standard does not allow for extensions. USB cables only have male connectors (with the exception of USB-OTG dongles).
wtf are you talking about, of course they do.

Show me where in the USB standards these are specified.
They cables and exist and they work. So being “specified” doesn’t mean jack shit.
They might sometimes work. They aren’t guaranteed to work.
