Lots of people ride with cell-phone only. This is OK, as long as you only ride where there is service, and you always have a full battery.
I abhor the “call of shame”, and I like being independent. I do my own repairs, but not everyone wants to learn these skills. Support your LBS, that’s OK. No shame in that.
At the end of the day, if the way that you ride makes you happy, then you’re doing it right. Don’t worry about what we think. If you have flats or mechanicals in the future and it starts to change your opinion, then you can always learn how to do basic maintenance then.
