Problem is BT headphones last 2 years then they go in the garbage because the batteries are dead. How eco-friendly is that!?

My 7 years old bluetooth headphone would disagree.

It is. We had it on phones since before the original iPhone. No one wants to take that away.

And no one except a vocal minority want to keep it. There are a lot on data on that, and manufacturer make their decision on that data.

But lets ignore that, and let's take my viewpoint as a customer. I don't want a port I have no use for. I don't want a DAC I have no use for. I don't want the extra weight that comes with them.

My needs conflict with yours, so what's the only way to make both of us somewhat happy? That's by making the 3.5mm jack an addon, which is what any manufacturer that does not focus on music listening would do.
