    I don’t understand ever under any circumstances having your phone on anything but vibrate.

      Because maybe I want to be alerted when my phone goes off?

        Why doesn’t vibrate alert you?

          Phone isn’t always in pocket, or even if it is I might just not notice it.

      If you’re being physically active you might not notice the vibrations, it also makes it easier to find when you’re aloof and set it somewhere random. If you’re dressed in multiple layers you wouldn’t notice it, also might not have pockets.

        What’s your point? I’m not going to answer anyway so not even noticing just skips a step

          And if someone’s having an emergency?

            Then they call 911 (or whatever it is in your country)

      On call schedules, in your gym bag. I imagine the vast majority of them are less attached to their phones and develop habits of leaving it in the other room for a while.
