Mobile phone? ❌
Landline? ✅
Not an exact equivalence, but some similarities.
Edit for clarification:
Cars, and mobile phones, can go anywhere. Trains, and Landline phones have fixed locations only.
Let's unbuild all the roads for a fair comparison then.
Aircraft are a better analogy I guess. No infrastructure needed other than the end points.
And the air traffic controllers, and the regulated airspace...
I don't know about you, but I remember a time when everyone had a landline.
Mobile phones would be more like teleporting in this analogy
