Do you think landline wall jacks are necessary today?

We’re repainting a bedroom and I told my wife we should remove it and cover the hole. We haven’t used a landline in almost 7 years.

I still have them, also an old rotary phone.
Do rotary phones still work? @SW-User

@stratosranger yes must have a adapter for it though
@MarineBob Ahhhh. I figured there was something else needed these days. I remember with the rotary phones how they would sometimes give a single “ding!” when lightning would flash outside. It made a thunderstorm all the more ominous.
