Yes - there's no mercy in this hypothetical world...

I can't hold the damned thing to my ear because I need both hands for
peeling the spuds.

I liked the fantastic pizza in bayswater but I cannot remind the name of the
cafeteria bar--
but it was special with those tasty sauces.

It's a new freestyle flavour here in utl these days...

Because there are legitimate use-cases where a speaker is better. Such
as listening to Radio 4 podcasts while I cook my dinner.

So buy some speakers and plug them into the headphone jack. Even cheap
speakers will sound tons better than any device loudspeaker.

Better? Maybe, but they're unnecessary. Which bit of "Radio 4 podcasts"
did you fail to understand? You are aware that Radio 4 is a *speech*
channel, right, for which sound quality isn't particularly important
provided that it's understandable?

I remember when computers were frustrating because they did
exactly what you told them to. That seems kinda quaint now.

They'll be entirely necessary, for you, once i ban loudspeakers in phones
with my World King powers.

A scandalous assertion. The Afternoon Play is not TalkSport, David.
