I'm not stretching this to be any one way or another. I'm just suggesting that its treating a symptom and not a root cause. Chances are if you are so predisposed to look at your phone to your detriment, you might have tendencies to do all sorts of similar actions to your detriment. The issue isn't the phone but the habitual tendency of trying to distract ones self from the (likely boring and mandatory) task at hand. If you tackled that issue directly, you wouldn't need a dumb phone, and you'd solve many other issues in your life beyond mere phone overuse I am sure. To me its a sell a man a fish, or teach a man how to fish and hunt and forage, type of situation.
