That sure is a simple solution! As a side effect, it filters out almost all of the people I actually want to talk to in my day-to-day life.
The inability for partisans of particular technologies to understand that affordances matter more than the technologist's spherical-cow notion of "better" continues apace. And I have some empathy for that viewpoint, too, but I grew out of it as a teenager and I always find it odd that others stuck to it.
If you can't meet people where they want to be, your solution might be simple but your solution isn't good for them and fulminating about it just isn't great.
