Still haven't watched the new video, but the FAs specifically call out cellphones and not moving seats on pretty much all [longer] flights I've taken in the last few years. And in multiple languages if flying to to a non-English speaking country.

I'd have thought anyone knew about this danger by now. Who knows, maybe the firestarter was asleep when the phone got dislodged, and moved the seat not knowing the phone was lost.
