It's all just clickbait at the moment, there are however benefits if they do, power for noise cancelling headphones and digital come to mind. Maybe they'll go with USB-C bit too fat though.

One presumes that if this happens, there will be a 3.5mm to lightning adapter available (doubt it'll ship with a new phone though) to allow to use your existing headphones with the lightning only phones.
One also presumes that new headphones will come with an adapter as well, otherwise they are limiting what you can use them with.
Having read a little, it seems that power from the phone can be used, so the headphones could feature noise cancelling tech, powered by the phone, rather than having to charge the headphones themselves.
I recall reading somewhere that one of the remaining limits when it comes to the thickness of the phone is the 3.5mm headphone jack, so to get a thinner phone (if you really need one) you need to do something about that, and your options are limited.

I have to think this is an elaborate plan to troll people, either you're smart and sat there laughing at us .. or you really have lost it.

I think you're a ****, sensational clickbait title, link to a comedy site, nothing better to do with your time.
I see great benefits in something other than 100 year old tech, if you really want to be stuck in the past how about not having a mobile phone at all, wait till you get home and use the land line, that way you'll have less to moan about.

Nothing to do with Apple, if you posted about Google in the same fashion I'd still think you were a ****. What's super amusing is in one sentence you berate me for having an opinion then in the next moan about the same thing.
And yes, I do think replacing something with something better is beneficial.
