I would love to see a new Linux user who just installed Linux on a pretty old machine because of no official Windows 11 support or performance issues compiling their own kernel. And they're not guaranteed to have a new phone either.
It's like saying that we should remove SDR monitor support because HDR somewhat works on Linux and it's better so everyone should move to it.
Same goes to X11. It's still available on sane and serious distros because it's needed for some people.
Those are terrible comparisons. The amount of people using SDR and X11 still is gigantic, the amount of people using USB tethering is... not.
I think you missed the word "regularly" in your sentence. USB tethering is not required very often.
Nope, you just misread my comment
Well then I can only say I disagree. Tethering isn't as common as SDR but it's still a pretty sizeable thing imo.
