To your point paper production is a wasteful process, I’ve heard figures of 10-20L of freshwater are used per one piece of A4 paper in addition to transportation costs and running a pulp mill. Pulp mills produce waste as well. The phone has a lot of waste on metals but in a less consumerist world - read don’t upgrade your phone every year - it has the property of reuse for every restaurant and durability compared to a restaurant menu. Even better you can power your phone with the rays from the sun.
