USB power, feature request

The TP-Link Kasa cameras were excellent, as they only required a USB connection for power. This was perfect for all properties with outside waterproof power sockets due to the small size of the plug required.
Many modern outside power sockets also have USB connection, again, really easy to use with the Kasa range of camera.
The biggest problem I see with the outdoor Tapo range of cameras, is the poorly designed requirement for a plug connection. The plug is so big that it does not fit inside any standard waterproof single or double socket outside power outlet.
Consumers do not want to drill holes in walls to run power and network, they want USB power and wireless network connection.
Do TP-Link plan to introduce any outdoor Tapo cameras (not the battery range) that match the ease of installation as the Kasa range?

These are common across the UK, installed outdoors at height. They are also installed as standard on new build properties.
The current TP Tapo camera UK plug is far too big, the TP Kasa USB connection was perfect. The Tapo range have taken a backwards step in requiring a physical plug.
