    I agree that there should be phones that prioritize sturdiness for clumsy people, but I see things like sturdiness and waterproof capabilities used as an excuse to get rid of useful features, and I don’t like it. I’ve had cell phones for over 2 decades, and I’ve never dropped one; having an SD card slot and headphone jack is much more important to me than durability, since I rarely hold it over water, and always make sure to keep a solid grip regardless of the circumstances.

      Hmm… maybe. You should look up East German Superfest glass. Big dishware producers refused to use it because it meant not selling replacement dishes.

      Though, OP’s argument is just dumb.
