Maybe it's just me but I definitely don't see anything wrong in asking a crew member to assist you in finding a lost item. At the very least, one would think they could inform maintenance if they or the passenger are unable to retrieve the item.

Maybe OP was such ROYAL (without the lineage) pain in the butt, including entourage and DWKHIA, that the lost phone was "poetic justice".

I was thinking the same thing. Perhaps the FAs had had their fill of this particular set of prima donnas and were going to ding them at every attempt they got. Whenever I have seen people lose their phone on a plane the FAs are more than helpful to the point of dismantling the seat almost.
As for the walking around, perhaps they had witnessed "my kids are everyone elses problem, I cannot do a thing with them so suck it up y'all" behaviour and thought they would restrict it to the one cabin only.

This thread has gone far astray from its topic, and has required "cleanup on aisle 4" too often due to some not remembering about keeping on topic, and how we are expected to treat each other.

FlyerTalk is a community and is intended to be a friendly, helpful and collegial place.
Please post in a friendly, respectful, welcoming manner. 'Snarky,' unfriendly posts will not be allowed. If you don't have something constructive to contribute to a thread, please do not post.
Unhelpful posts, such as "Do a search" or those that merely comment on the worthiness of others' posts or threads are neither friendly nor welcoming and will not be allowed. If you can't be helpful or contribute substantive content to a thread, please refrain from posting.
12.2 Avoid Getting Personal
If you have a difference of opinion with another member, challenge the idea — NOT the person. Getting personal with another member is not allowed. Personal attacks, insults, baiting and flaming will not be tolerated.
FlyerTalk is a diverse, multi-cultural community. Expressions of prejudice or discrimination in any form are not permitted (such as those concerning race, nationality, religious belief, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability, etc).
If another member gets personal with you, do not retaliate. Retaliation may well subject you to the same discipline. Instead, please use the 'Alert a moderator to this thread' button in the lower-left-hand-corner of each post, send a note explaining your concern to the moderator team, and leave it to them to handle. Please also see Rule 22 — When you believe someone has violated the rules.
12.3 Disruptive or repetitive posting
Posts that are inflammatory, inciting or unnecessarily provocative are not allowed.
Disrupting a forum by repetitively posting comments of the same general theme or 'piling-on' by posting merely to reinforce or bump a prior post of a disruptive nature are both examples of disruptive posting and not permitted.
