It'd be fair to say that it's made me a lazy player because I no longer really know how to calculate all that quickly. If there's lots of outages, then the company will lose subscribers and be at risk of failure. If it's rare, then the printed copies won't be used much outside of conventions and other locations without internet service. That's common in hotels, less so elsewhere if you don't mind using cellular data.

They have every incentive to get it right.
You forgot power outages. We had one here a few weeks ago that lasted for six hours. In that situation, you're going to want to conserve your cell phone battery rather than using it for data.
