Someone should saw off the legs of the techbros that came up with the idea of removing the headphone jacks from phones. Just like the headphone jacks, legs are technologically "superseeded" by cars and electronic wheelchairs.
Think they do it to save like 10 pence on tens of thousands of phones, but that's what happens when you are legally required to chase profit and the only way to do it is to enshitefy your product
They did it to improve water resistance and to sell the more expensive wireless earpods.
That is an added benefit or apple and google
