I stopped caring about the headphone jack when every pair I used, the wire eventually wore out. Having to buy more every couple months was getting old. I’d rather recharge my Airpods every 4 or 5 hours for 45 mins than continue buying wired headphones repeatedly for enternity.

But that’s just my personal experience. I use headphones at work, so obviously with all the constant moving around, it was hard on the wires. I don’t wish for the jack to be removed but I will never use it again for my purposes.
