I think the argument is, that you will only remember activities, but not idling. So if you're busy during the flight, then you will remember that. But if you do nothing at all, then you won't remember anything. If you don't like flying, that's an advantage, because you won't remember the flight.

I remember when I waste my time. An experience so extremely boring would stay with me long after the fact.

And I am someone who don't sit on my phone on the toilet, because I like being alone with my thoughts.

So that argument really would only work with people who don't think much anyway.

well, I have experienced similar things myself. When I find myself in stressful situations, I just switch off my mind and go forward, because I know that that way I will eventually find a solution to my problems. For example when I have a lot of work to do. If I start doubting, I won't get anywhere. So I have to switch off my mind. And in fact, in retrospect I rarely remember the difficulties that I went through. Maybe, though, that's just my personal experience. Maybe for other people it doesn't work that way.
