This jack-off move by Apple could perhaps be justified as courage by Apple if they were moving to a newer standard - like USB C.
Instead they moved to a proprietary port that they only partially support. It'll be great to be denied the option of using the same non-wireless headphones on my iPhone as on my Macbook (unless they also implement Lightning ports on the Macbooks, which would be horribly confusing).
Thanks Apple!
