I don't know about the higher wattage ones for the 87W or 96W chargers, but for the 60W adapter there are tons of 3m cable options including companies like Anker that make better cables than Apple does. For example: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0832DC7W8/
And anyway, compare this to before USB-C. "My MacBook's magsafe cable isn't long enough, can I get a longer one?"
No, it's soldered to the power brick, comes in only one length, costs $80 to replace the whole thing if the cable frays, and no reputable 3rd party options exist because it was Apple's special sauce patented power connector.
I'll take USB-C over that.
