I am not particularly opposed to a paper only process for the tiny number of people who have some legitimate reason they cannot use the main process. But that isn't what is demanded so why should we go beyond the bare minimum to allow those users access?
Have some loaner phones (or similar devices) at immigration and let people get on with it? No, people who refuse tech must have all the benefits and not be left behind despite explicitly choosing to be left behind? Why?
Also, there is nothing "elite" about owning a smart phone. Especially not if you travel internationally. Pretending otherwise is just silly.
