I dig this. This is what I am thinking.

Much easier to click than dial.

Social cost of a web link versus a phone number may be lower as well (that may be cultural but it may be true)

Adds other modes like calendar or chat or AI directly in flow.

No need to reveal a phone number.

And for HN tradition’s sake for these types of comments, no one likes rsync.

In what way is this easier than click to dial? They’re both one click, but in this scenario I need a headset/microphone, a stable Internet connection, and if I do this from my smart phone it doesn’t know I’m in a call so when I hold the phone up to my face I will likely hit buttons.
