This might be true for a very select few devices. Before usb-c I have never seen something else besides micro USB on an android device (besides the micro USB 3.0 connection, but you could put a normal micro USB cable in those)
Yeah, the common EPS initiative (mandating USB 2.0 micro-B) was in effect since 2009. That's right around the time smartphones were getting popular. Even my last slide phone had micro-USB. Maybe there were different models for different markets though, a product doesn't need to follow EU law if it's only sold in the US.
