¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i bought my current phone because of its headphone jack
this is mostly about bluetooth, but some of it applies to usb-c + dongle:
i have a cheap pair of earphones in my pocket (which i'm prepared to lose). another by the door. a more expensive set of headphones upstairs. a speaker in the kitchen. and when i get in a friend's car or go to their house, i can just plug my phone in and it works without the aggravation of having to pair to their speaker
tell me, oh "you can just buy a dongle" people, what am i supposed to do? buy one and accept that i'll lose it all the time? buy 5 and keep one plugged into every 3.5mm i own and don't own?
plus, y'know - takes slightly more battery, hassle to pair, can't charge and use dongle, all the other obvious issues

Yep, kinda similar setup here. I've got multiple types of headsets for various situations:
I don't really want to buy a dongle for everything, not to mention, you'd then run into the issue of not being able to charge your phone while using the dongle, unless you get a dongle that also allows charging and... it's just not a nice solution.
