A proper headphone jack will always and forever be superior to needing a dongle.

Unfortunately there are major, intentional, compatibility problems with USB audio.

During early COVID, USB audio worked perfectly, but an Android update disabled, supposedly for "security" reasons.

That USB-C jack is not nearly as strong and robust as a proper headphone jack.

I do not think I have owned a single device where the headphone jack was the first item to have issues or fail. Even unused debris would trigger switches changing sound sources. I am happy to be done with wired headphones being yanked off my head.
