True, but there are going to be ways to make smartphone images sharper. You can already do some work in Lightroom to mostly bridge the gap.

IMO professional camera manufacturers need to get ahead of that by putting computational photography techniques in their full frame bodies.

Yes, but ultimately no matter how much computational photography and odd filter arrays you throw it, the diffraction limit will kill you with a 2mm wide smartphone camera.
