Back in Apple II and macintosh days, Apple already had a history to incorporating special modes that only their hardware know how to use. For example, the Apple IIe card for macintosh had a special display mode that were not visible to end user if no special hardware uses it.I’m surprised it made a difference considering the iPad 5th gen doesn’t support USB PD fast charging.

I noticed this charging irregularity where my 11” MacBook Air charged iPhone 6s Plus faster than charging through PC usb port. 10W output compared to 5W or lower. So yeah.
Still gonna be faster than charging through PC USB ports For sure, which I tend to do back when I was still using my iPhone 6s Plus.The 5th gen only supports 12W though. I remember checking before and it only pulls ~13W from the wall even when charging via USB-C to Lightning. The 7th gen does pull ~15W.

I got a new charger for absolutely no reason then ( new fire hazard tbh this thing heats up even while using a 5w charger )
True. I chossing between an ipad pro and a macbook air. I could use this with both.You can save it for when you get iPhone 15 or future iPhones with USB-C.
