You are not wrong but a small onetime purchase of a used device every 5-7 years is drop in the ocean compared to renting a new phone off the rack every two years and being locked into the ecosystem of your provider. The only thing I feel bad about is buying the phone from Amazon. I just couldn't find one anywhere else and my old phone was barely usable.
