Maybe Inductive will improve, but it is inferior to conductive. Less power transfer efficiency => slower charging. That's why everything is conductive now. People don't want to wait hours to charge their stuff.
I used to think wireless charging (conductive or inductive) was just a fad for the lazy, but there have been plenty of times that I have come back to a conductive charging cradle to find that someone or me didn't seat the device in there right and the contacts were off and you have a radio, game controller, etc. that you can't use.
If you can place a device on a FliCharge pad in any orientation and know that it is charging (via the constellation), then there is an advantage over both inductive wireless and conductive cradling (even conductive direct connect can damage the connection pins over time, no more wired data transfer from you tab or phone once that happens).

Marketing to make those points and then we will see what the consumers think about it.
