I am sad that the Pro is getting rid of the silent button. It is solid and I know when it's activated and I know it won't accidentally be on. Not sure I really need another push button. That silent button was/is a key feature of iPhone for me.
I don't think I've ever intended for the phone to be anything but silent. It's a much better experience for users to be able to remap what the button does, instead of depending on the few users who still depend on ringtones.
I kinda feel the same way although I am excited to be able to use the "action" button for other things and just leave the phone muted/silent permanently (as it is currently).
