So for people with no self-restraint?
Certainly some people who lack self-control benefit from a feature phone.
I guess you probably got down voted because lack of self-control is only one of many reasons to use a dumb phone. The other reason mentioned in the article is battery life.
I have both a smart phone and a feature phone. The smartphone is permanently in airplane mode & it goes wherever I go. The feature phone actually has a mobile subscription but I don’t typically carry it.
