You're totally right. Why would we bother putting things on our phones that don't help us communicate?

You must be fun at parties.

My iPad charges my Apple Pencil.

The fact is that while at parties I leave the phone in the car so as to not have the socializing interrupted. My phone is a tool, just like my others, it is not a freshly minted sergeant constantly giving out orders and demanding attention. The camera is occasionally useful, I have a computer for web access that is much easier to use.
And I never ever walk down the street with my face in a phone, unaware of everything else. In short, I am not am not an enslaved phone addict.

If I needed a portable battery box for recgarging toys I could certainly buy a very good one for much less than what your phone/battery charger cost.
