It’s not that people don’t think that lighting-port headphones don’t work, it’s more that people are bothered by the fact that Apple made an already frustratingly proprietary device more proprietary and made it less useful in the process. It’s only a matter of time before the lighting port and physical buttons go away, and all that we’re left with is a device that can only be interfaced with or charged wirelessly. Arguments will be made that it’s worth it, but I was using smartphones since before the iPhone and I’ve only had one of them die from getting wet, but I’ve used the headphone jack on every phone that’s had a media player virtually every day.
