I'll take tangled headphones over eminently losable $150 headphones.

  Why are bluetooth earbuds more lose-able than wired earbuds? I have several pairs of wired earbuds that came with my phones over the years, and I only know where 1 pair is (coiled up in a drawer on my desk). Unless the earbuds are permanently plugged in to your device, it's just as easy to lose them as it is to lose wireless earbuds. Unless you're trying to argue that they'd fall out and you wouldn't notice until you've already lost it? Because that seems unlikely. How often have you had an earbud fall out without you noticing? That's never happened to me. I mean, they do fall out, but it's pretty hard to not notice when that happens.

    They are small, and there are two of them.

    So, you notice when they fall out (anecdotally, this happens to me all the time with the current generation of Apple headphones) - how will this help when you're walking down a sidewalk and they get crushed under someone else's feet? Or fall down a drain? Under your seat in your car? Headphones are one case where a wire is eminently helpful to have.

    Yes, it's easy to notice when they fall out. But they stay attached when they fall out, versus falling onto the floor/road/platform/etc.
