I'm with you 100%. Of course I'm an anarchist and I generally don't like anyone banning anything at a government level. I think it's fine to enforce contextual community rules, I think it's even better to explain the reasoning for the rules and get consensus and buy in from those who are supposed to follow them. It's even better if the things you're doing are in fact more interesting than scrolling Insta...
My kids understand when phones are and are not appropriate

At a summer camp my one kid brought a tablet, which would have literally zero internet, to his sleepaway camp. It had a large pre-downloaded music library so he could share his eclectic and historically informed music tastes with other kids. It was a legitimate and well thought out attempt to socialize... the tablet was confiscated the first day and he never got to do any of that. One size fits all. In the end it wasn't a giant deal, but it didn't help anything either
