Exactly. Would you clip a phone to the panel and depart in 75m RVR with it as your primary attitude reference? No. Would you gladly accept it as a backup when the other instruments have failed? Definitely!

One significant technical difference between the phone and an INS/ADIRU is that the phone most likely has a lot more computing power available...
