my mom is the definition of a non-nerd and she has multiple pairs of wired earbuds. normal people still regularly use wired headphones.
and for the enthusiast side of things, almost all of audiophile equipment is wired. i couldn't even imagine what an eqivalent to the 7HZ Timeless would look like and what it would cost.
no one is really profiting from this design change besides people who bought into wireless stuff immediately after the iphone 7.
P.S.: don't get me wrong. i like the convenience of bluetooth, but if you want to listen to music the way the composer listened to it, ya gotta do it without compression and without the cheapest drivers fairphone could scrape together.
