It’s such copium to go “mm yes give me bones in my tiny pieces of meat! I love paying for sauce and skin and bone!”
Call me whatever you want, call boneless wings nuggets or strips or tendies, whatever. If you want chicken with bones in it, go for something with an actual amount of meat or fun factor to it. When I get a drumstick, I feel like a medieval king enjoying the jesters on my screen as I snap a bite off and grow closer to dying from gout.
If I am paying my hard earned cash for meat and sauce, I want the meat and sauce, not sauce and bones that take up 50% of my meal and go into the trash can when I’m done. I get there’s an appear to “sucking the sauce off the bone”, I love a good rack of ribs as much as the next Joe Six-Pack, but I want the bones to be able to suckable, and not “this could get lost in my teeth if I’m not careful enough.”
Maybe I’ve never had a good set of bone in wings from local or chain places, but I would much rather buy some tendies and dunk that shit in some generic sauce than eat wings.
It’s 1:19 AM as I write this before I pass out, I wanted to get this out in a humorous way, and I hope someone else enjoys it in this shit time we’re all in. Goodnight.

Your whole mistake is assuming that meat is why people eat wings.
No, to paraphrase Dennis Reynolds, there’s no denying that the skins are the most fascinating part. Bone in wings have the highest ratio of skin out of any cut, and are therefore the most delicious.
And yes, I sometimes take chicken skin off of thighs and breasts to just fry them as some kind of chicharrones.
Boneless wings are not made of the dark meat from wings and are inherently a different product altogether. They are made from dry, relatively flavorless breast meat that needs a lot of help. There are good reasons why the more expensive a restaurant is, the less likely that any kind of chicken meat they serve will be breast meat.
The entire idea here is flavor, not quantity (though I weekly order great all you can eat wings while playing D&D for cheaper than a big mac). The marrow adds a lot of flavor.
I’d guess that you have only ever had absolutely sub par wings. A lot of places will serve wings at the culinary level of Hooters - soggy, over cooked slop.
Soap box time:
FUCK BONE IN WINGS
