I was just hoping a phone like fairphone would give me the option to buy a small module or something to let me do it.

Yes, yes there's adapters .... yes, yes, you don't need to use it ... I understand. I just want it.

You'd ultimately be sacrificing battery size for that Aux jack you hardly use. For most that's not worth it

I mean ... you don't have to tell me that my opinion isn't popular, it's demonstrable. My opinion is statistically insignificant.

There's a plethora of other things I'd give up like have a slighter bigger phone or a worse camera or wireless charging... I'd also trade those for an SD card slot but no one agrees with me and it's just something I need to live with.
