It would be easy to make the port waterproof (and there is still that lightning connector there, don't forget), and the 3.5 mm port is not the limiting factor for thickness.
Some day, with new materials, and new designs, maybe, but not now.
Devices long passed the point where a majority of users put their devices in cases not just to protect them, but to make them thick enough to hold comfortably. Bob J. Gear specializes in making silicone bumper cases for tablets and ereaders.

Thinner jumped the shark.
