Next experiment: To consume content primarily on a non-tablet non-phone for a week. (It will fail a comparable way.)
Isn't that what most people do? Browsing share of smartphones/tablets is still not very large compared to laptops and desktops. And about 30-40% of the internet-using population in the U.S., at least, doesn't even own a smartphone or tablet.
They don't regularly consume content using a desktop/laptop while stuck in traffic, riding an elevator, eating lunch, etc. They don't much use a desktop/laptop to take impromptu pictures, make phone calls, do inventory, etc.
BTW: capturing 30-40% of the internet-using population in just 3.5 years is an amazing achievement.
Yes, they do. Those few seconds are a great time to sift thru emails ("junk...junk...junk..."), check weather for the next hour while I'm outside (Dark Sky; "aw, man, it's gonna rain in 10 minutes"), watch short videos ("awright, what's this 'You Shall Not Pass' goat video?").
And I take my iPad to lunch to facilitate any interesting, albeit idle, chats ("have you heard of X?" "yeah, look at this" [pulls up webpage]).
Yeah, you're sick of technology. Some of us are addicted to it. Well, a LOT of us.

Do people really do this? "Oh, the elevator's going up. Let me watch two minutes of my favourite TV show!"
Maybe I'm just sick of technology, but while I'm having lunch I want to enjoy my lunch, and maybe chat idly with some friends/colleagues.
