Apple should have provided a complete solution to the issue or no solution at all. It is a half-assed attempt to placate the people who don't want to lose the audio port.
Yup.

To restate /clarify my earlier position.

I'm not saying Jobs would have not eliminated the headphone jack.

I believe he would have wanted a better implementation / transition.
