Agreed, this is the way to go. I've always found it amazing how easily people will create a fragile SPoF dependency on a phone, which can so easily be lost/broken/etc. And more importantly, it's a single point of centralized tracking, so the last thing you'd want is to have everything tied to it.
While I do have a phone, mostly for use as a hotspot, I pretend I don't. I'll always take the course of action of not having a phone.
