Five ways Apple can fix the iPhone, but won't

Consider this.....

Surely one of the arguments for removal of the headphone port is that this an analogue port that has served the industry well but is getting long in the tooth and limited in capabilities, the lightning connector is digital which then allows headphones with DACs built in (effectively mitigating any issue with the Apple provided DAC within the iPhone). So far those individuals who are unable to distinguish between lossless/lossy formats and higher definition audio, or those who just don''t mind the onboard DAC still ticks the boxes. For those who want the best out of their hardware they too have an option available to them

Does that therefore not make points 3 and 5 contradictory ??
