The arguments that some people defending this present are hilarious, from the "airline pilot" thing (it certainly easier to disable your phone from locking itself), to freeing up technical resources (didn't stop the Dreamcast from producing great games), to this being the next logical step from their advancement into mobile (Sony actually makes phones, didn't push them toward retarded decisions though).

This is an ad-hoc afterthought and it needs to be rectified. This "solution" is in every way inferior to most other options available to people.
