On a recent post, there were a lot of comments, which said that they were missing the headphones on newer mobile devices.

How many actually use the headphone jack?

I ask, because I have one on my phone, since I really wanted one, but I rarely use it. Like Tops 1/Month.

Yes, and then the same power management issue comes up because you used to have two discrete poets for their own tasks and you don't. You also have things to lose and to stress the usbc jack so that it fails earlier. 3.5mm Jack is also an especially sturdy jack compared to things like micro USB of the past.

I guess to continue the fire extinguisher analogy, your extinguisher is also your respirator now.... So if you want to use it during a fire, you can't do both. Burn in a fire with your mask on safely OR inhale in all those chemicals and smoke while fighting the fire - PROGRESS!!!
