I asked about real life impact. Try to quantify it some way if you want to answer my question.

(Sorry, I don't understand why the litany of quotations.)

Real world impact?
"remote escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation" - real world impact would be that someone can take control of your phone without you needing to do anything. Spyware abusing this security flaw could get your passwords, bank details, turn your phone into a bot in a botnet etc. Would something like this be real enough for you?

As real and as vague as, for instance, if you drive you can get into a deadly accident. Impact means something such as, e.g, 1 in n people with phones with security updates 3 months old or older get their phone taken over by a malicious actor. "Something bad may happen" says nothing about impact.

You are totally right but some people cannot understand your words. Don't waste your time.

The batery is horrible on my zenfone 8. Brabd new phone,4 days old. Battery is draining so fast. Every 2-3 minutes 1%. Just hope the new update will fix it. Im on Android 12.

vanja - your new phone battery is not in form... you must charge your battery couple times and then battery get in form... after couple months my zf 8 without traveling and only on wifi reaches 10h+ sot with lower brightness, 5h web , messenger, RSS,etc.. only 2g/3g mode.. also using ultra slow charging or even better slower charger adapter stabilize battery life and lifespan..
