    They cost more, have to be charged, add a conversion step to the audio, often sound worse. Can I plug my Sony MDR-7506s that I’ve had for 30 years and use every day? Sure if I get a converter… But even that uses up a usb-c port that I could be using for something else.

        You have to convert the audio to a bluetooth compatible codec like LDAC instead of just using the audio file which is in a format like mp3 with a higher bitrate. Compressing the signal can make the audio sound worse. (I would say bluetooth makes it sound worse for most situations but by how much is somewhat of an opinion question)
