Use a credit card that provides 1 year extended warranty for no charge. Battery unlikely to degrade in 2 years.
After 2 years out the money you saved on the warranty towards buying a new pair with the latest tech.
AirPods are not particularly fragile - if you drop the individual earbuds they will not break , and if you drop the case with the buds they are still unlikely to break , but if you are that prone to dropping buy a $5 case.
I have machine washed AirPods and they have worked without issue after drying out. In fact I washed a pair twice before it finally started working intermittently after a couple years use.
Also with this sale price , your cost for the warranty plus the deductible for a single replacement is basically half the product cost. That makes even less financial sense.
Community Reviews
AirPods Pro 3 stand out for strong active noise cancellation, a better ear seal than the Pro 2, and a price that undercuts recent Amazon and Costco offers. The earbuds are praised for blocking TV noise and snoring, and the sound is described as close to the Pro 2. The main hesitation is upgrade value, since Pro 2 owners with good fit and healthy batteries may not gain much. Stock has also been tight, with checkout failures and limited pickup or shipping availability.
Active noise cancellation can reduce surrounding noise during everyday situations.
The earbuds can seal in the ear better than AirPods Pro 2 for improved fit.
A Walmart checkout retry can still complete the purchase despite low stock.
Best Buy price matching can help reach a lower effective cost with additional DashPass savings.
An opened-box delivery can lead to return or exchange delays after the box is already opened.
AirPods Pro 3 may not be comfortable for sleeping unless you are a back sleeper.
Walmart may refuse price adjustments for earlier $179 purchases, requiring a return and repurchase.
Some AirPods pairs can develop high-pitched hissing after the one-year warranty period ends.

It's not that $20 is making my pits sweat, its that replacing the few products that fail in my lifetime doesn't concern me. Wasting money buying warranties on everything I buy would. Kinda like how large companies self insure.
Also please point to some kind of factual evidence that Apple has poor QC - Most would actually rank Apple as some of the most durable and reliable hardware available. Especially the MBP line you speak of.
Of course, as you say everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Being SD you should be able to see from the # of downvotes that your opinion is not shared.
