Plugging my phone in to charge is a task I do once a day, that takes about 2-3 seconds. It's never been a "problem" that I felt needed "resolving" by wireless charging... which just seems like an uneccesary complexity to me.
During the day, standing up, both hands free, well-lit room, it's easy to hold the phone in one hand, the cable in the other hand, find the tiny port, and plug it in.
Late at night, lying in bed, on your back, pitch black room, 90% asleep, your eyes adjusted to the backlight you've been viewing for the last half hour, you need to contort your body to get both hands free, find the cable, then plug the cable into the tiny port.
That's what's unnecessarily complex. Fumbling around in the dark trying to mate a tiny USB-C cable tip into a tiny USB-C port.
With MagSafe, there is no need to fiddle with microscopic cable tips and microscopic cable receptacles. You just reach over with one hand, hover over MagSafe, hear the magnet slap against the iPhone, and you're done. Anyone who uses iPhone in bed in a pitch black room to help one fall asleep understands this.
