Its kind of nice to have but I would never think I need to have it. If I am going to the beach or downtown and just want to be in the moment putting these things away is very nice to do. People are way to tied to them. It is not a necessity.
By your logic we all should get those devices that you wear so it can auto call if you fall down. Sorry I am not going to be tied to technology, and least not to the point where I can't just go out in the world without it.
It's more like a "if I already have one, why not throw it in my handbag just in case", since if that the 1 time out of 1000000 that I'll need it, having a phone with me might save my life.
I don't have a phone addiction so bringing it with me won't cause any issue
Might as well stay home. That is the safest thing to do.
Just throwing in that little 130-200g device into your pack doesn't modify/impact the activity you are going to do. It's just extra safety.
