...No one is going to want to have to carry several other halfs everywhere they go just so they can swap if the need arises.

You don't really want me to take that bet now do you?
Jolla may be thinking along the lines as you in this one case; those are excellent examples of what I'd say people around here would call proper extensibility of the platform as a whole - however it would also mean that developers have already figured out a new, disruptive way to extend the Sailfish/MeeGo platform that doesn't exist anywhere else in the Linux stack for the most part.
Linux is a workhorse. People want it on their servers, desktops and now phones for a reason. But to have it extend to the realm of consumer consumption where it (Jolla or otherwise) intercepts our daily operations is what's missing. Either it's Raspberry Pi (regarded as a great "toy" or tinker item") or it's a web server - which can't play the latest games (Steam withstanding).
I like your vision. Let's hope that Jolla and the devs share it. That would make me jump to Jolla immediately.

which mentioned the other half could have parental controls which would restrict access to certain features of the phone. I find this very useful but it makes me wonder if the other half is programmable so you can determine what features launch/are restricted when used. No one is going to want to have to carry several other halfs everywhere they go just so they can swap if the need arises.
