I wonder if that’s more a fascination with the low-lifes of a cyberpunk future. The “street finds its own uses for things” crowd. I feel like tech minimalism would be seen as more “clean” and thus “high class” from that perspective. So having wires everywhere makes it look more custom and cobbled together.
Good point. Even headphones that aren’t bluetooth look cheap and poor now.
