For me, this doesn't ring true. My USB 3 port got to the point where it couldn't hold a cable (not lint or dirt, the tiny little bit that holds the cable firmly got worn down). I have rarely had a headphone jack break. Maybe twice in my life, on old battered walkmans or mp3 players that suffered years of use.
This is the current state of my S21. I only used the usb-to-aux adapter a handful of times, as I ended up getting a BT headphone pair because of the hassle. I think whoever manufactured the USB-C jacks screwed people over.
