All of those transitions where painful, it's just that we tend to look at the past with rose color glasses.

It does hark back quite strongly to when Apple removed the floppy drive from the original iMacs. And not having a floppy drive sucked at that point. Just because something's the way of the future doesn't mean the old option is instantly obsolete.

For the few months before I got AirPods it was fine. I bought 2 or 3 of the little pigtails and it was largely a non-issue.
