You're missing the point and being pedantic. A good quality smartphone takes very good photos for the point and click brigade. All my photos are taken with one, and I've never had any complaints. Look through my photobucket in the links below if you want to criticise them.
You have your phone with you all the time, so if you see something to record, you get it out, point, click, done.
The phone is connected to the internet, so you get more or less infinite storage, you can't lose your photos, they can be circulated/published immediately, etc.
Also you have massive processing power and intelligence behind the camera, so you can get a lot of smart features like focus tracking, face recognition, object recognition, auto-tagging, etc.
The argument isn't about which takes the best photos. Its about which is the most convenient and appropriate for the quality of photos you need. Do you need an SLR to show a picture of the mileage reading on your LCD or to share a funny road sign that you've seen?
