Just use an usb-c keyboard, you can use a much bigger one than would ever fit in a phone. Those tiny ones where a thumb covers 5 keys at a time weren’t that great, SwiftKey is much faster
No. It should be integrated into the phone, impossible to leave somewhere and incapable of having connection issues.
The fact that most smartphone users are illiterate and would rather watch a video and send voice notes than actually write anything worth reading isn’t an excuse to make the phone useless to anyone capable of forming complete sentences.
I find those tiny keyboards much harder to use than my onscreen kb. I still get like 60 wpm without swipe or autocorrect or anything which is easily sufficient. Sure it’s not nearly as fast as a PC kb but I can’t imagine I’d be faster on a tiny physical one.
Why would you want a bigger phone with less battery life for the 5 times a decade you need to write a novel? I can get up to about 50 wpm on a smartphone. Past that, it has to be a full-size keyboard. The slide-out ones aren’t any better than an on-screen one.
If you can’t use one, or haven’t configured it to fit your style, that’s a skill issue.

Great, another thing to carry in my pocket
Everything has a drawback. built in keyboard was a nightmare to fix.
