Lets ban walking while talking too then, that is also distracted walking, and as any fast walker can attest to, people walking slowly while absorbed in conversation and hogging the entire width of the sidewalk are only second to people weaving through pedestrians on bicycles in causing trouble.

Amen. There's about a half dozen sidewalk activities I would want to stop before I got to looking at a phone. Talking loudly, walking multiple people abreast, stopping without "pulling over", using any kind of vehicle (unless required for mobility), walking out of a door into the sidewalk without paying attention.
