I don't follow; isn't that what I already said?
You said it was only the Gen2 version. I just wanted to make sure people knew that both 1st and 2nd generation mobile cables have always had this feature.

Right, the EVSE has to send a signal to the car to let it know how many max amps are available. It's a part in each adapter that tells the charging cable what that number should be to announce to the car.
No, that's like the second stage. The signal from the EVSE doesn't need to change. It can still announce that 32A or whatever maximum are available, but the car can then "request" less than the "announced" maximum available. So you would see 20/32 or something like that if you reduced it. You still get to see what the max available is.

UMC (Universal Mobile Connector) = Gen 1 Mobile connector.
Tesla rebranded the product when Gen 2 came out to avoid confusion.
For Tesla End-To-End Charging, There's Supercharging & Destination Charging. For Everything Else, There's The Mobile Connector — Part II
Ah, well they just created some confusion then. Since there is a Gen1 and a Gen2 of the same product, I thought they were still using the same name, and they were both Universal Mobile Connector. I hadn't heard that they were trying to rebrand or change the name by officially dropping the word "universal" out of it, which doesn't seem to make sense except to create more confusion.
I didn't realize that / in your sentence was to split between two products, since you didn't mention "Gen1". I get that now--nevermind.
