I did note that anomaly.

You’re not wrong on phone calls. But you gain so more. A friend calls in tears - can you really feel that on WhatsApp?

I will note that we use WhatsApp for group calls.

I do actually miss having a desk phone and having the policy that calls are always urgent and emails are not. A bit of respect between people forms then.
