Someone should saw off the legs of the techbros that came up with the idea of removing the headphone jacks from phones. Just like the headphone jacks, legs are technologically "superseeded" by cars and electronic wheelchairs.
They did it to improve water resistance and to sell the more expensive wireless earpods.
which don't really matter unless the difference allows your phones to survive a full cycle in a washing machine. So far many phones which removed the headphone jack still does not.
