Today's hardware WTF: HDMI monitor deliberately back-feeding 5V power to the source. Through a diode, even. Why on earth‽

[...] The specification introduces a reversible 32-pin superMHL connector, which (along with USB Type-C) supports a higher charging power of up to 40 W (20 V / 2 A), and is designed for future bandwidth expansion.
I don't think this monitor supports MHL, and even if it did, I doubt it's allowed to backfeed power without negotiating first.
