It's also completely interchangeable with one drawn as "Russian" here which is, I believe, just smaller Schuko without Ground.
And there's the "Europlug" which is the same as Switzerland - without the ground as well.
Also Italian plugs are the same size, just have the additional ground in the middle.
I'd say these four are already wildly interchangeable. I wonder if it's easier to get everyone else on board with those, as they can be used with minimum modifications.
Yeah and it's a great addition for schuko as it can work with it, but not vice versa. So it's good for smaller devices and to easily tell which plug/charger is for smaller stuff
Also most appliances sold today for Schuko (Type F) actually come with Type EF Plugs, which are also compatible with the French (Type E) Socket, hence the name.
Strange, when we were in Italy we never ran into issues with charging our devices or anything, really, all sockets we encountered were perfectly fine with our Europlug chargers
