I'm of the opinion that one can set a good example for their children and limit screen time while not regulating themselves to a dumbphone. It teaches your children self-control by example, after all.
I tend to keep internet turned off when I'm out in public, but that phone is still a tool. Clock, phone, notebook, grocery list, map, music, etc. I don't have to buy all those things or keep them on me any longer. That's worth the screen. I do tend to travel with a book or sketchpad, though - which honestly, gives the same distraction. So does daydreaming.
I live in a safe enough area to not worry about a lot of things, which probably helps.
Then again, I don't think I use the phone like most folks do either.
