Why would you ever think that they'd go back and bring back a headphone jack?

It might not be your kind of thing, but a lot of people get value out of Snapchat. There's no reason to shove your nose at it like you are doing here.

Their office is/was 4 blocks from Montgomery BART. Not hard to get to at all.
