Isn't part of the reason for removing the headphone jack that it is part of the strategy to make the phone more resistant to water intrusion (since the jack is basically a big hole in the phone)? It seems to me that water resistance is a very desirable feature which I'd gladly trade for the headphone jack. However, until my current iPhone 6 falls in the water I'm not in any hurry to trade it in for a 7.
