Yes, I mostly use wireless earbuds but you never know when you have to use a wired earbuds like if you forget your case and your earbuds are out of charge.

I'd say the only thing more rare than forgetting your case and your buds being out of charge...is remembering to have a spare set of wired headphones in your pocket for just that scenario.

Or he's at home with wired buds within easy reach.

So he lost his case, or forgot to charge them in the last week... And thats a fault of the product?

It is a needless limitation of the product.

I'd consider having a ~6ft direct tether from my head to my pocket a needless limitation of a product.

We could go in circles all day with this line of reasoning, so it's clear there is a need for both options.

All three options. I have a nice set of USB headphones for my computer. It would be really nice to have support for those included. There is plenty of space along the side of the phone to fit an extra USB-A port.
