I've been noticing a lot of earwax were collecting on the tip. So it basically meant these eartips were 'cleaning'/removing all this inner earwax. I've read that having some earwax is actually good for your ears - they help provide lubricant and protection from dust and foreign objects. So by having them 'removed', aren't you damaging your ears?
And I remember in the past, the reason people would advise you not to use Q-Tips too much is because they essentially push the earwax further and further in, and this will just cause clogging. And it seems like these 3 flange tips need to be pushed quite far in.
So I am wondering, are these 3 flange tips essentially bad for your ears?
Side note:
I also noticed the shape of my ears are quite different - the earphones fit my left ear very nicely and not so much for my right ear. Probably due to when I was a teenage, I used to only listen with one ear piece on my right ear. It is also explains why my right ear has poorer hearing. So I try to take better care of my ears now.
