Yes but except in remote areas or with specific natural features, where you can't get to other people easily, having a phone not cut for days is not critical enough that it justify maintaining a whole parallel infrastructure.
You may argue it does, but it's easy to figure out: in my country you can get it in some places, but it's an expensive premium.
Very few people do. Which mean they don't value it as much as they say they do. The ones that do usually are the ones that have the need to be able to call health institutions in emergency.
Turns out humanity survives very well without a phone, and while I get how it can become a big problem for an individual, on average for the whole society, it doesn't balance out.
