There are actually dongles which have both an audio jack and a USB c port. I never used one of those dongles though

I have. They tend to be poorly shielded so you get all kinds of hiss and other shenanigans in the audio when you're charging and listening at the same time. The adapters exist, but I've yet to come across one that isn't terrible.

Those suck worse than the old school 3.5mm splitters we all used back in the discman, and later iPod days.

The removal of the headphone jack is one of the worst developments in personal electronics over the last 30 years. Personally I hope that the EU's next port mandate forces its reintroduction as Bluetooth headphones are an environmental catastrophe.
