I have always suggested others when their iPhone doesn't charge to clean out their charging port with a wooden toothpick, and I just recently decided to try it out for myself, and to my surprise it didn't fit. Is there something I'm doing wrong or...it just doesn't hit the bottom of the port.

The USB-C port on your iPhone is smaller than the Lightning ports on older models. Toothpicks work find in Lightning ports, but you need something smaller, such as IdrisSeabright suggested, for USB-C ports. OTOH, the smaller USB-C ports shouldn’t need much cleaning.
That’s why I don’t follow others.
I have found that the best posts always come to my attention.
I am lucky to have discovered you Zachyy.
You have more user-tips at Level 5 than I have ever seen.
Most of my user-tips involve the Terminal.
I foresee you will become one of the greatest volunteers we have ever had.

Your note and kind words are very inspiring Smilin-Brian, thank you so much for that. I hope to be here in the long run.
Hard to say.
How should we clean a USB-C port then?
Hello~ I, too use the silicon plugs. They work well.

Am I correct in assuming that the heat that's reported when charging wirelessly is a result of the induction coils getting warm, as opposed to the battery?
That is correct. ✅
I am limited in what I can say regarding my previous position because it was classified confidential.
Excellent question Tim and thank you for the clarification Brian!
Thank you kindly Smilin-Brian, and for always replying to them! My posts always seem to stir discussion among everyone!
