Well I thought your reply was both amusing and technically relevant...

I'd never be caught dead with that lanyard haha so it's amusing to see it recommended, though I don't blame others for using one!

I've not considered it, but with the rise of phones and e-ink and so on, I assume pocket protectors are even less common than they were prior?

You don't have to use the exact same lanyard if you don't like it. You can use a gold chain or other classy metal chain for old times sake, although it won't be condensable.
