I follow the same ideas- before you take any kit with you ask yourself if this gets broken/ nicked/ lost what do I do then? I personally wouldn't recommend having all your eggs in one basket- if you use a smartphone as your comms and also you nav tool, what do you do if it breaks? Not only are you lost, but you can't contact anyone for assistance either. Also if you take a smartphone, what happens if you get a job in a shithole like Tijuana or Djibouti( don't laugh I've been there) and the phone breaks? You'll be stuffed cos sure as hell they'll not be able to fix it.
