1, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10 are not even valid complaints. Nothing prevents you from using wireless headsets if you want to. 2 and 3 both exist with USB c and lightning connectors, for charging if nothing else and are both remedied with an inexpensive but still decent quality case.

I use BT headsets in my phone when I run for the same reason you do, but my phone certainly doesn't last a full day running BT, nor does anyone I know tbh. Sounds like your phone is magic, or you're not using your BT often as it's a power hog on every phone I've used. I believe you're not being disingenuous, but it's not a standard experience for most people.

iPhone 7+ with AirPods, perhaps it's the BT LE or something?

I also forgot the worst point, when the headphone cord gets caught and rips the 3.5mm jack out of my device resulting in it blurting out (my secret love of the Moana soundtrack) at full volume to a train carriage of commuters...

There's nothing wrong with the Moana soundtrack, you're welcome. Also, the headphones getting ripped out of the ear is unpleasant I agree with you there.
The music stops when you pull out the headphones...
