The UK plug is nice. Very robust, it connects to ground before it reaches three power line and has a switch but it’s clunky.
Type E is inverted in the picture.
I have a strong preference for the German and Swiss types, but I think we can all agree that Japan massively fucked up. They took the already shitty American plug and just forgot about the ground.
As a Brazilian, that makes me so sad. We used to have a type that could fit European and American plugs, but they just changed it. Never gonna let it go hahaha
Type I.
ElectroBoom (Youtube) made some points about Australia’s Type I. Seems it was very hard for him to electrocute himself. Lots of breakers on the outlets. I mean he did electrocute himself, but he was always going to.
I think I would like Australia’s over the rest.
The recessed circles I feel like they would gather dust and grime in there if you don’t use it often and be tough to clean out.
I like the angles prongs as well as the switch to turn it off and on.
This is the most definitive argument that type J is superior to all others:

Swiss Type J, because you can have three of them, taking up no more space than one German or French plug.
There was two different ways you could have ordered this alphabetically, and you failed to do either.
Brazilian Type N looks like it’s not a big deal, but the shape and depth are actually extremely good - you get a fantastic connection that never wobbles but also comes out when you need it without having weird pins or moving locks that always end up failing in some other designs. It’s also compact and stacks nicely.
Which ever outlet that allows me to stick a fork in them.
I really like the power outlets in the EU. You don’t have to fart around with different sized prongs and the voltage is higher which makes things like tea kettles far more efficient.
Its India 🇮🇳 Because its easy to use.
safety-wise, type F is used with 240v. less likely to touch prongs. they are different to keep from plugging in incompatible devices from other systems.
