Wireless charging is really niche and worse than wired in every way

Huh? Name one. Oneplus is dead to me after they removed the most useful feature that almost everyone uses and expects in even the most basic phone, let alone a $1k+ phone.

The way I would use wireless charging would be having my phone on my desk charging while I work on my pc. The problem with that is that If i have to use my phone, I would have to take it from The wireless charger which stops the charging. Charging the phone multiple times a day is so bad for the battery so I would prefer to just charge when its low and take it off when its full or almost full, and with a wired charger I can do just that and still use the phone while its charging

Modern batteries really don't care much about how or how often you charge them. You'll ruin the port with frequent plug/unplug cycle way before you notice any effect on the battery.
