So it's a case of "everyone's stupid except for me"?
Incredibly vocal minority on reddit/Lemmy aside, your average consumer doesn't give a shit about having a 3.5 jack in their phone. The market prefers thinner, lighter, and better waterproofing. Know how I know? Because if there was a big market for a phone with a 3.5 jack, someone would be making it, and lots of people would be buying it. It's not saving these companies a ton on manufacturing to not include one. They cost pennies each when purchased in bulk.
that's not how it works, so I'd argue you don't know... as Jobs said, he'll tell you what you want.
