Sorry, but that's just not the case. I once had a splitter that was nothing
but a piece of metal with no wires and it broke the jack into which it was
plugged in two days. A splitter with two short (two- or three-inch) wires
will place far less stress on the jack.

The smaller the profile of the splitter, the less leverage there is when a
cord is pulled.
Having a splitter that has a long throw and 2 long wires connecting to the
earphone wires causes a large stresss on the receptacle.
Find a low profile splitter that has no wires.
