If those things don't matter, why'd you list them as complaints?
Frankly, I don't buy this particular issue as "choice being taken away from us," I see it as obsolete technology falling by the wayside. As far as I'm concerned the freedom from having your head physically tethered to some other device outweighs any of the concerns anyone's brought up, so why would I be upset about losing the "choice" to use an objectively worse option?
