This reminds me of the people who, at the dawn of the smartphone age, were proudly boasting of their dumbphone's week-long battery life vs. the nightly recharging required by smartphones.

Until they realized they were completely missing the point, since they were comparing a phone to _a pocket computer with a constant data connection_. Most have since stopped boasting and just silently plug in their phone every night.
