Even ignoring all the privacy issues with that, it's kinda shit to unnecessarily lose phone features when you've got no signal

That's how phones have always worked. As long as they are not automatically ingesting data from people without permission. I don't see an issue with this. At least in this instance we have some choice in what we send or don't. It's no more privacy nightmare than mid-Journey doll-e or any of the others.
