Just because you don't find yourself needing a given port doesn't mean no one should have one.

My USB c port broke from being cycled too many times with a stupid headphone dongle, and now I can't charge it with a cable OR use my god damn headphones. I like my headphones, its obnoxious that I can't just plug them into the device I want to listen to. I get it's not relevant to you but it is relevant to many other people which is why so many people are still bitching about it years after almost every manufacturer has removed the port. Every single day its frustrating I don't have one. Its frustrating when my friends want to play music in my car and they don't have one.

I got my headphones for Christmas and I LOVE THEM, but I can't even use them with my phone :(
