Yep, this is me. I like just capturing memories with my smartphone, and only wish it had a better lens. It's convenient that I can just carry it in my pocket and not have to carry a separate device. If someone made this smartphone-like camera, I wouldn't buy one. What purpose would it serve? I already have a phone, and if I want to spend more money to get better-quality photos than it can provide, I can just go buy a higher-end phone that's aimed at people like me, with a bigger and better lens. Why would I want to carry a separate camera around and then worry about stuff like syncing photos? If, however, I got back into doing more serious amateur photography, like I was into 15+ years ago, the last thing I would want is a smartphone-like camera with an annoying touchscreen. I'd want a "prosumer" DSLR, with lots of physical switches. And these already exist.
