Apple was right to get rid of the 3.5 mm jack. Come at me.

You haven't given your reasoning. You're given nothing to "come at".

I’m know. Mostly I was trolling. I personally would never use a 3.5 mm jack ever again. Once I started using Bluetooth headphones, I can’t possibly go back to cables. And a jack dedicated to that is pointless to me.

Fair enough.
For me personally, I love having technology from right before the explosion of Bluetooth integration. For example, I have stereo receivers and other sets of speakers that require that 3.5mm jack for input. Not having that jack on my current phone (Pixel 8) has made it more annoying to use these devices. Also, I still have an iPod Classic that I used to use exclusively in the car but now I have to carry it around more so it can be used with my old stereos.
Also, I can't stand the bluetooth latency; especially in the car. If I'm parked having lunch somewhere, I can't watch a video without a terrible audio desync.
I still value the 3.5mm jack.

I imagine 3.5 is all around a better quality connection than Bluetooth. Like WiFi can never compete with wired.

They forgot to put a balanced output jack in place of it.
