Firstly, a cable is going to outlast the lifespan of batteries that are irreplaceable inside earphone pieces, which make the whole set useless. With the wired earphones with replaceable cables, your earphone pieces are fully intact. Secondly, the wire is highly recyclable with plastic sheath, copper wires and plastic/metal ends. This is not the case with wireless earbuds that become obsolete as a whole set after a few years.
So with wired 2-pin or MMCX IEMs, you end up with just the wire becoming damaged in 3-4 years, while you save up on money and generate far less e-waste, and is far more environmentally better since those earphone pieces need to be produced or bought less.
Of course, it goes without saying that you can buy wired IEMs that cost upwards of $70 that have no equivalent in wireless audio gear space. So that is just another advantage.
I forgot to tell you that you can buy small wireless DACs for $40-50 which allow plugging 3.5mm audio gear, and also allow battery replacements, unlike throwaway TWS earbuds.
If you still insist after this knowledge on wireless, neckbands are a good bit better than TWS buds, as their batteries can atleast be replaced if you buy ones from good companies. Although wireless space is all about planned obsolescence, unless you pick one of the forementioned options I suggest.
