I know this isn't what you really meant... but I think you may need to reflect for a moment on what you actually wrote.

Now I want Everything in the Play Store, so that I can have it on Nothing.

But will you still prefer that big bump if it being so big that it occupied space of battery, haptic motor, vapor chamber, speakers, etc? Or, it being so big that affects you playing zenless zone zero, for example?
This is exactly what the premium phones in China are suffering from. One example being OPPO find x7 ultra, 4 hasselblad massive cameras with two being periscope. Its battery is only 5000 mah and users frequently reports it needing recharging 2 or 3 times a day. Is this what you expect?
There's one old saying in China: "Extreme equals the opposite". And that's why usually the mid-range phones with the same flag ship processor in China are popular. They are literally no different than the premium flagships except the camera, and they did drastically better on thermals and performance.

Yes, so I can buy even more adapters for my other devices that still possess a minijack. And because I will never have a need to charge my phone while I'm using my wired headphones.
And yes, I must have wired headphones. Bluetooth audio is hot garbage. And I'm not even an audiophile. My problem with it has everything to do with the tiny delay introduced by bluetooth audio.

I simply suggested a solution to have wired headphones with a modern phone. You can take your condescension and place it in an orifice that causes the most discomfort.

You suggested a solution in search of a problem that shouldn't exist in the first place, because the minijack is a better solution in all use cases.
And to be clear, the problem doesn't exist for me, yet, because I don't spend money on phones that don't have minijacks, but soon enough I won't have the option, because people like you seem to want to defend anti-consumer behavior by manufacturers, when simply having a minijack on any given phone when you're not going to use it anyway is a complete non-issue for you.
I feel the need to point out that the only reason the major manufacturers have been deleting the minijack on their handsets is because they all sell bluetooth audio devices with a significant markup over similar wired devices. This isn't a situation where anyone is saving money by deleting the minijack, or improving a design in other ways(take the waterproofing strawman argument for example; it's trivial to waterproof a minijack).
I'm not sure why you're trying to make this personal by suggesting I defile myself, but I hope you're not under the mistaken impression that doing so somehow furthers your argument.

"NOTHING PHONE" is the MOST CLEVER EVER! Name to exist this in day and age for a tech product! Simply because everyone wants "EVERYTHING" they can't have, NOW! lol.
I truly believe NOTHING does a fine job in delivering EVERYTHING

I have no "argument", I wasn't "defending" shit. I made a simple comment stating the existence of a wired headphone for phones without a minijack. It's a statement, not a diatribe like you offer to me. You felt the need to point out things I made no mention about. Copulate alone elsewhere.

And to that, I will respond: Nobody needs a high end anything. But we all want our stuff to happen faster, we all want nicer cars with all the latest whizzbang features, we all want the comfy first-class seat on the airplane, we all want these luxuries that we can't always afford.
It's not always about need. And when a particular "luxury" happens to be more within reach than many other luxuries... a lot of people will naturally choose to grab hold of it.
Huh. Didn't noticed that until you mentioned it. I guess they're trying to encourage people to respond to critiques in a conversational manner, rather than just going back and "changing history" as it were.

And just to circle around to this prior note... this is not always true. Anecdotally, in some ways I'm probably living pretty close to the worst case scenario, technologically speaking: I used to live in the 'burbs where 5G data flowed as in the land of milk and honey... but now I live in the middle of nowheres-ville. Best I can hope for from any of the local cellular providers is mediocre (one-to-two bar) voice communication and practically no cellular data comms at all, when I'm at home. I'm entirely reliant upon Starlink for my data comms... and satellite isn't always reliable. What's more, even the power grid isn't necessarily stable... when an ice storm hit recently, our power was out for multiple days. We were on generator for most of that time -- but even that generator gave out at one point, and I had to go buy a new one. (Yes, we are planning on solar and whole-house batteries, eventually... but that's another one of those very expensive luxuries, so it's not happening quite yet.)
All of that is to say, it's actually quite nice to have some decent local processing capabilities just sitting in my pocket, especially when so many other things fail me.
