It’s another component that requires water resistant components. Obviously you can make it water resistant, but it comes at an additional cost. More importantly though, the 3.5mm jack is physically quite large inside the phone. It’s much larger than a USB-C jack, for instance. Easily 2-3x the size internally.

Yea but this only matters if you're considering fatness as a factor. This factor disappeared long before the headphone jack did. I have never in my life heard "i won't use that phone cuz it's too fat". Apple just irrationally hates wires. God forbid someone ask for a button!
