But audio containers (esp. those in common use) are by and large video containers without the video ( https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Media/Formats/Containers ). And even then, interpreting a container is the job of an external library (gstreamer/ffmpeg/whachamacallit).

Now, I agree that listening to an audio file from a video player is not exactly the very best UX ever, but it beats the "Listening to local audio files in my web browser" UX and handily beats the "I have no (GUI) program to listen to an audio file at all" UX
