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.

All companies will have some product that fails to an extent...even a shovel manufacturer. Claiming Apple products as having serious failure points is just being overly dramatic when the numbers don't support what most people think "serious" means.
Extended warranties aren't necessarily a bad thing but most of the time they are very much a profit center for companies and that includes Apple. I've been an Apple guy for decades and in that time I've bought AppleCare I think once which was when Apple Silicon was getting off the ground. It was a new direction so for a small fee(Mac mini AppleCare is pretty cheap) I spent the money. Never needed it.
And by the way I have 4 of the Gen 1 HomePods that you claim have serious failure points. They were purchased years back at different points and not a problem. Do some people have issues with theirs? I have no doubt in my mind. Serious flaws on the lines as a whole? No.
If someone wants to buy AppleCare, let them. For some it's a great experience and well worth it. For others it's a waste of money. Let them be. The number of people who say "Boy I wish I had bought AppleCare because I lost out on a $4000 purchase." is extremely low.
