Are you being willfully obtuse or do you actually believe that's true of everyone? There are so many reasons why someone might have a laptop in such a situation but not be able to use a hotspot on their phone - it's not even worth listing them.
That isn't what this thread suggested; I was supporting plausibility of the GP's claim never to have used public Wifi because of good 4G; stating they could still have used a laptop in public. My wording was also explicit that this isn't always an option.
