It is funny that in some early models(iPhone?)of smart phones with ’better 8 mp camera’ they even offered that one of top buttons on The phone could be used as trigger on (p&s) camera if it was used in landscape. To improve that ergonomic thing. But that button is long gone. You are giving away a lot of controll over handy way to take and share photos/video.
It is little like chiken and egg, which came first, interest or need for ’phone’ like huawei P30, or is it just too much for what it is...? Biggest drawback of being handy, these things are slippery, cumbersome and extremelly fragile. Unlike nice small p&s..

About this question, it is intereting, but you did not go with a BIG camera, you went with m4/3. especially with 20 and 90 mm lenses it is not that far away from most recent phones(with latest tech, multilens, ect.) Now if you had nice zoom like 12-35/2.8 or so, it could have been different because of versality. When I took with me my Oly E5MKII and kit lens14-42(total $$$$,$$ around as much as top end phone). I knew that only thing setting it better than phone(iPhone7) was it's versality, ability to use it like as actual camera and possibility of tripod. Which do give me advantage in nights scapes.
But for most, I'd say that it is not an advantage anymore. For me, Oly has changed to be K-1 with big lenses. Or Limiteds. I will get GR later on when budget allows, and perhaps that new theta. Just because. But using my phone. No. Only when I take ashot of really basic things, and it will not be published anywhere. I would not like post things in Insta or even in Facebook(I'm still using it :), because it just does not look as good even at that size. Allways when I do, it make me go little sad that I did. :)
