Exactly, who is using bog-standard texts and phonecalls in this day and age? Do they also use internet explorer because that's the default too? Even if you're not on Signal, everyone and their mums has WhatsApp, I don't see how this is even an issue!
So many people use standard clear text messaging and calling.

That's the point where you ask them for their phone.
