So basically what you are saying is that people should just sit and stare at the wall and do nothing that generates any noise because a subway is like a library?

Look, if you sleep 8 hours and work 9, that give 7 hours per day of free time during the week. Add in a 1 hour commute each way (not unreasonable) and that means that people spend 28% of their 'free time' commuting. Phones are a way for people to make the best of that 28% of their life that gets sucked away via commuting. I am NOT going to chastise people for that.

You are free to buy a car or get a cab if you don't like it.
