I sincerely hope that the future doesn't involve wires. Incremental improvement will be required to reach that future. This is one of them, so I welcome it.

I completely agree, but for things that "just need to work" I'll be using wires until there is no noticeable difference in using the two.

Wires also provide power

Wireless can also provide power. Note that i'm not saying it's a good way, as it has very low efficiency.

[NoPicklez → southerntofu]

Wireless can provide power, but currently only at extremely short distances. At which point you need a wire to the device providing the wireless power anyway, so you may as well just plug it in.

True, but even now, I only charge my devices while I'm sleeping.
