But at a hotel you at least get one of the keys to the room (not just a padded little section of it) and they don't expect you to buy the building before you check in.
You get keys to a room on a smartphone, but just like a hotel, there are a lot of rooms that are locked to you, and you can’t replace the furniture, remodel etc.
We are both arguing that you don’t really own a smartphone, so you aren’t buying the building.
