I'm from the generation that had just discovered CD players with "anti-skip" techology and Minidisc. I don't find wires complicated, but I feel wireless earbuds, despite potential loss of quality, more practical for things like commuting or working out. Even for phone meetings I like being able to put in earbuds and walk around, do laundry, etc., without having to carry my device or worry about wires getting caught. I would prefer a set that doesn't have tracking or voice assistance though.

Pedantry aside, the parent comment is clearly in the set of humanity alongside yourself, and they made a clear argument for wires. While you might disagree with wires, this dismissive comment was unnecessary.
