Your position was that someone else is wrong to desire audio jacks, because you personally don’t need one after spaffing money on some Bluetooth earphones.
My point – which I thought was very obvious, but apparently you missed it – was that just because you don’t see the value of something doesn’t mean others don’t or that it shouldn’t exist.
I don’t have a piano, and I don’t know why you think I do.
My entire metaphor is that I don’t play or have a piano, but I recognise that it’s stupid for me to discourage others from having them solely because I personally don’t have or want one.
I’m a bit confused by your metaphor then (and thanks for the constructive insults, brings me back to the old reddit days…), since why take issue with something you dont own or use in the first place? Is the piano the headjack, or is it the bluetooth?
I didn’t insult you, I remarked that you didn’t appear to have understood my comment, and by the looks of it you still don’t.
Apologies if you’re upset by my comment. That was not my intent. I was just pointing out the absurdity of your judgemental comment.
I’m not the one taking issue with something I don’t own. That’s my entire point. You are discouraging someone from wanting something just because you personally don’t value it.
The piano is the headphone jack.
You don’t need a headphone jack, and feel the need to disparage others who do. “I don’t use a headphone jack, so you shouldn’t want a phone with one.”
Similarly, I don’t need a piano. However, I don’t go around telling people they shouldn’t want/play one, because I recognise that the things I want in my life are different to the things other people want in theirs.
If you seriously don’t get it, keyboards for music are electronic and many consider it to be an evolution of Piano since you can do much more with it due to the electronics.
The comparison being (Piano) hard wire/cable headphones are an older form of tech, and while absolutely they have a good use (particularly where low latency or higher quality audio are concerned, I would know I own a pair of studio quality sennheisers) in situations where you do not need those things, and instead want more flexibility, wireless headphones (electronic keyboard) are perfectly serviceable (amd have massively improved over the last decade alone).
Therefore it always makes me laugh a little when people constantly complain on new devices that it’s missing a headphone jack. It’s like complaining that the new keyboard from Casio isn’t a piano.
I understand why people miss the headphone jack, I did too for a while, but honestly wireless earbuds are so much more convenient anyway and the sound quality has improved quite a bit to my ears over the years.
Wanna know how many times I played a piano in the past 20 years?
Zero. Clearly they shouldn’t exist.
No, but maybe you should re-gift it to someone who does…
You’re not making sense.

It’s more like a new keyboard comes out and people all complain that it’s not a piano.
It’s nothing like that at all.
A keyboard is not a piano. Nobody can reasonably expect it to be a piano.
To be clear, I mean the musical instrument.
If you seriously don’t get it, keyboards for music are electronic and many consider it to be an evolution of Piano since you can do much more with it due to the electronics.
