Will the "on the phone" hand gesture die out?

What A Waster

You know the one. Thumb up, little finger out, mimicking a telephone handset.

We've not had a landline phone in our house for years now. But even when we did it was a small cordless one, similar to the old Nokia phones.

There's probably a generation of people early 20s or younger never used a phone connected with a cord.
The hand gesture to signal this with the thumb and little finger mimicks the shape of an old style phone.

What will the youth of today do in the future do to pretend being on the phone?
Hold their hand flat against their face?

Another great tradition dying out :(
