If you want a bulky replaceable plug, you can get those at any hardware store. Meanwhile I’ll take the smaller more reliable, more durable and waterproof molded plastic plug
idk i think our aussie plugs are a good middle ground: they’re about mid way between UK and US in size, are not reversible, don’t have a fuse (but laws govern the type of current things can handle: extension cords MUST be 10A which covers a standard 10A home circuit - i believe there’s some extra built into the rating too), power boards the same, and have a 10A safety switch built into them which prevents daisy chaining over the current just like the fuse
repairability probably not so good, buuuuut i’ve never had a cable break so maybe we do something different with the construction that solves that need?
I think British style plugs are the best despite their bulkiness. For one they are easily fixed and are designed to be so.

I’ll for repairability but the plug isn’t usually what breaks.
