I agree with
@pkcable. I know that wherever I go, I am far, far more likely to find a wired charger to use/borrow than a Qi charger. Every iPhone user I know has at least one to borrow. I can connect to somebody's car system to gain a little charge even (Qi in cars is very, very hard to find.) Qi charging external battery packs are very few and far between; many people who carry an external battery pack have one that can take a cable only. Qi charging is also less efficient than wired lightning, generates more heat, and is more likely to lead to a faster reduction in battery health over time. As I keep my phones for at least 30 months, this is kind of important to me. I know that my car system sounds a lot better when it is connected by a lightning cable than by Bluetooth - the sound fidelity is noticeably better. Finally, if something happened to the phone and it needed DFU/Recovery mode in order to be restored, a phone without a working lightning port cannot be saved until the port is repaired/replaced.
I agree about BT headphones - I've been using those since before the headphone jack was removed from iPhones.
Having Qi charging as a backup in case the lightning port fails is better than the pre-2018 days for iPhone users, as at least you can still find a way to charge. But it is definitely not ideal for the vast, vast majority of users.
