Did you even read my reply fully?
Recording studios also don't use a smartphone to do their work.
Even if we do assume that the majority of the world still uses wired earphones, it still makes sense to remove the audio jack for reasons I have explained already.
You haven't provided a single good reason. Why are you fighting this so hard? Samsung isn't gonna kiss you.
Ah yes, it is totally unfair to expect consumers who prefer wired audio to make a one time purchase of a 10$ dongle. Instead phone manufacturers should continue to ship every single phone with an audio jack for years to come. And anybody who says it is fine to remove the audio jack because those who prefer wired audio can use a dongle is obviously a samsung shill.
How ironic is it that the guy who makes personal attacks over a debate surrounding freakin headphone jacks calls others a snowflake :)
