One should be at the bottom one at the top. I understand space on the phone is a premium but a second port would make the phone so much more usable. Wired headphones, flash drives, camera modules, speaker modules, keyboards, even connection to a TV, all could be used while charging. It's a shame it's not a thing, USB is extremely versatile port, but you only get one and it's used for charging half of the time. (I am aware dongles exist)

Wired headphones... could be used while charging

Sure is a shame nobody ever came up with a way to do that before.

The person who decided a headphone jack is superfluous should be found, tarred, feathered, and left naked and alone deep in the alaskan wilderness covered in pigs blood for the wildlife to enjoy.

I believe Steve Jobs is already dead. And those who inherited his billions probably don't mind all those extra AirPod sales, especially if people keep losing them.

Steve Jobs died in 2011, the headphone jack disappeared from the iPhone 7 in 2016.
