Which of these smart phones lets me have a headphone jack… ’cause that is how I will choose. I can patch software & be wary about how I use the device, but I can’t just add I/O to the hardware. Until the Pixel brings back the jack, it is dead to me.

None basically. There's a Sony phone has LineageOS (including +microg variant) support, but it's not ideal either.

The Apple TypeC-to-3.5mm dongle is cheap and measures better than most phones in terms of audio quality.

If you use mostly the same pair of headphones, you can attach the dongle to them and use them just like before. But it's annoying if you use many different headphones and have to either move the dongle from one set to another or buy multiple dongles.

I gave up on avoiding phones without a headphone jack.

I got a Nokia XR20 because of this. Also waterproof and rugged. A phone that needs a case to survive the hairless monkeys dropping it is a design failure and completely unacceptable.

Just wish I could use proper software with it.
