This is the use case of most people, just let me hear the sound and get out of my way.

The HN crowd, especially the more focused and tech-savvy people, find issues with the sound quality, ambient noise pickup, and sync issues. All valid issues and the reason I don't care for wireless earbuds in general.

I will stick to my over-ear headset, but I definitely see how airpods are revolutionary and convenient for non-tech users that just want something cordless and simple that works most of the time.
