What are the chances these are just recent returns that have minimal use (like new and in excellent condition?

You won't be able to update the firmware or change the settings without a 3rd party software (most of which aren't great) or access to an iOS device. Maybe it's different than when I got mine, but they come out of the box without their adaptive mode enabled, just pass through and ANC.
You also lose in ear detection, spacial audio (which I find gimmicky anyway), and find my tracking.
I don't think any of these are a deal breaker, and you can find ways around these limitations. I would say it's still worth it for $100 given how good the ANC is.
Honestly, even if you have a friend or family member who will let you connect them to their iOS device to set them up and modify the settings to how you like them, it's still worth it. You wouldn't need to do much tweaking after that. The firmware is basically end game at this point, so it's not like they need any regular updates.
The only caveat here is that it would potentially give them find my tracking ability, but you could turn that off in settings when setting them up.
Bose sound quality is great, and I realize fit is different for everyone, but I've had and returned multiple pairs of Bose earbuds because they were so bulky and uncomfortable. I have pretty big ears, so I can't imagine they're comfortable unless you're giving Dumbo a run for his money.
