The claim sounds rather dubious.

It seems to assume cell phone towers would still be in operation during a major power outage so you can still use your phone apps
and perform financial transactions. If the cell towers in the effected area have backup generator power they can
keep cell phone service going.

In that case many things will still function through your smartphone, including bitcoin transactions, so CBDCs don't have any
special advantage. Many companies and businesses, especially larger ones, have backup generator power so they couldcan still be
in operation during thea power outage at least temporarily. It's a dumb argument for CBDCs.
