Yeah: I largely think phone calls are stupid, have been using text communication since I was a kid 30 years ago--on BBS systems originally!--and you have no hop

Yeah: I largely think phone calls are stupid, have been using text communication since I was a kid 30 years ago--on BBS systems originally!--and you have no hope of reaching me in a timely manner if you call me... but I'm not going to use that as a reason to make it harder for other people to use phone calls if they want them, even if I see no reason for synchronous communication to exist: you do you... but you also have to let me do me or you frankly don't deserve to be able to do you. "I don't find this useful" is only a reason to prevent other people from being able to have the feature if you are an authoritarian asshole, plain and simple :/. If you don't like aspects of feature, you know what? You should get to turn it off... and, it turns out, you can.
