...and the headphone jack was removed several years ago, so what's your point?
What I'm saying is that it's makes the prices go down. That means better quality ones will get cheaper.
The bluetooth headphones I use are fine. I've heard most people say that AirPods are great.

How is it forcing anything on anyone? One, you don't have to buy the phone, and two, you can use the supplied lightning-adapter headphones, or use an adaptor.
They are already in the mass market the problem is they suck.
I have tried a bunch of cheap Chinese bluetooth headphones that cost from $20-$60 they all sound like $5 wired headphones have about 2 hours battery life and break after a month.
I have tried bluetooth head phones that where $200 beats by drea they worked as well as the Chinese headphones they just cost 10 times the price.
Removing the headphone jack has forced people to spend a lot of money on shitty headphones, thats what your glad of.
