I get the loud because so many of us have hearing impairment with age- but I don’t get the other stuff. There isn’t any reason a person can’t leave the room to talk on their phone.
I am guilty of keeping my ringer on a really high setting, if it's on .. because my dog loves to hide my phone.. buries it .. or sits on it .. like he's a chicken .. or dragon .. and it a pile of gold!
I went to Rancho La Puerta one time as the guest of us, friend who was a speaker. No phones allowed, and if you have them, they have to be on silent- it was so quiet for a week. When I made my way back to the airport a week later, the noise of the phones was so shocking to my system. It was awful
See comments about bluetoothing to hearing aides. Game changer. They’ll still start conversations with someone “not in the room,” but at least it’s half the noises.

She refuses hearing aids😵💫
There’s the ‘difficult’ volume button
The ringer too low
Then too high
Over ear headphones as uncomfortable
In-ear being worse
She’s still learning she has to charge them😵
