Of course, you also have to understand that upwards of 95% of people don't want to use desktop style UI's on their phones. Nor are they trying to get some artwork into the Louvre while on the go. Thus making a stylus nothing more than an inconvenience or waste of space. Add in that most (not all) resistive touch screens have poor sensitivity, low accuracy, and are single touch, whereas most capacitive touch screens have excellent sensitivity, high accuracy (not necessarily precision, which isn't needed in most modern smartphone OSs anyway), and are multitouch, and resistive doesn't look too appealing to that 95% of the population. Possibly lesser selling points are that capacitive screens allow more light through (less backlight needed, more battery life), and can be made much more durable than resistive screens. Sure, you could argue that capacitive screens don't work without special gloves, but there isn't a huge number of people living locales with year-round glove-wearing temperatures, let alone people living in such areas that actually wear gloves every time they're outside.

Saying that modern phones are only for bloggers with ADHD and the uneducated is somewhere along the lines of saying that Dvorak is only for one handed people. (no offense to bloggers w/ADHD, the uneducated, or one handed people)
