It's not "unthinkable".
It just doesn't end-up making much sense.
The problem is that it would make the already-expensive cycling computer even more expensive and require an additional fee for cell-service.
The might be some people willing to spend that extra money but, likely, not enough to make a market for it.
If people didn't want to bring their expensive phone, they could just get a
second inexpensive phone.
One of chaadster's ideas would still need the phone in addition to the cycle computer "phone".
