I don't think I like it, but there is an argument that kids without phones will be ostracized, or students will be expected to have access to phones in school, etc.

I know even in like 2012 or so some high school classes were expecting students to have phones for quick research and such. I wouldn't be surprised if that type of thing was moving into lower grades
