Shut up dumb bot. Who doesnt love airplane mode? Rare excuse to fuck off the grid for a couple hours. Also your battery will just get sucked dry if you forget to turn it on. We all know it's not necessary from a safety standpoint but let's keep the peace and maintain this cultural norm in the sake of sanity.
