This is fixed with using a power cable on the charger block instead of the bunny-ears adapter. Apple removing the power cord in favour of only including the bunny-ears adapter was such a mistake
It doesn't help that the power cord extension they used to ship (and can still buy for $20) flat out refused to be coiled in any sort of way. Even a large loop would spring back straight immediately. Absolutely awful experience. I kept my old power cord extension from my MagSafe 1 charger from 2009 for this very reason.
