Frequency of use doesn’t equate to importance.

Example: checking 100 phone notifications about spam email is probably less important to society than a radio alert about a tornado warning.

Good thing tornado warning is now a loud mobile phone alert.

I'd expect people mostly listen to radio because they are bored while driving, which has about as much "importance".
