Sure but "almost always" is not "always". Maybe don't judge these until you've heard them?

wearing earphones while walking outside is a niche usage

Speak for yourself, I do it three or so hours a day.

Indoors or in a car... that's where I never wear earphones. I prefer speakers for that.

Huh? If I wear headphones outside, they will literally be drenched in sweat when I take them off. And you can't exactly put headphones in a washing machine to remove sweat from the foam padding either. They'll start to stink in no time.
