I am aware this is an issue for some people. At the same time it's not an issue for other people.

Their latest models don't include adapters, their earlier ones without headphone jacks did.

The issue with Bluetooth isn't Apple's fault, though.
But if you want high quality headphones then, yes, you have that choice to make. But we need to acknowledge that not everyone has those requirements.
Instead they include wired headphones with a proprietary plug.
