Yep, the one cycling activity where you probably don't want photography to eat through the battery life of your GPS/phone/web device.
Fwiw I prefer cameras that have two strap lugs to enable use of a shoulder strap worn across the body (shoulder straps looped to and from the same lug are miserable). Means the camera can stay close to hand, and dangle out of the way when riding.

Unless you shoot every 5 minutes, it doesn't eat the battery, especially when you put it on airplane mode.
Biggest advantage is being able to edit on the spot/later in the evening, a phone screen have a high enough resolution to see whether the photo you took is decent or not (easier to spot camera shake).

He did says touring, and the iPhone exceed in that category.
Otherwise, being extremely biased because I used one for touring; Sony RX100.
