A person picks up the phone without knowing if they are looking for information, rest or company.

I propose a simple initial question: what would I need right now? In the hypothetical example, if the need is to speak, a precise call may be better suited to scrolling through content for an hour.

If it is rest, another activity may be preferable. There is no need to eliminate spontaneity: this small step makes observable a choice that is otherwise left entirely to the sequence proposed by the platform.
