Because there are legitimate use-cases where a speaker is better. Such
as listening to Radio 4 podcasts while I cook my dinner.

So buy some speakers and plug them into the headphone jack. Even cheap
speakers will sound tons better than any device loudspeaker.


Better? Maybe, but they're unnecessary.


They'll be entirely necessary, for you, once i ban loudspeakers in phones
with my World King powers.

Which bit of "Radio 4 podcasts" did you fail to understand? You are
aware that Radio 4 is a *speech* channel, right, for which sound quality
isn't particularly important provided that it's understandable?


A scandalous assertion. The Afternoon Play is not TalkSport, David.
