using in your daily smartphone i dont think its pratical, android kills all tasks in the background, and even if you only put it back on when making a tx you will wait forever imo. but using an old phone always plugged in at home is a good option imo. Also people think they need a dedicated server for a node, you can run it on your daily personal laptop.

The phone doesn't have to be plugged, the node doesn't have to be running 24/7. You only turn on the node when you will make a transaction, itcan sync to the latest block quickly enough.

If it's not synced it can't relay and if it's not going to relay it's just a drain on the network.

So at scale, is it desirable?

It could remain active(relaying) while the phone is plugged/charging, a lot of apps do this.
