cant wait for businesses to be able to pay google more to have their calls always marked as urgent /s

At a loss who this is aimed at. Corporate? Because people who call without asking are not gonna bother with clicking a reason. (Or worse, click emergency every time because that means the other person will pick up) And people who ask already know if person is free/available/wants to talk.

It's a good idea. I have family who insist on calling without messaging first and I feel like this helps bridge that gap a bit. This can tell me "walk out of your meeting a family member is dying" when I get a random call. A text could do the same thing but some people are just incapable of grasping that the person in the other end of the phone also has a completely separate life from theirs and may be busy.

If it gets abused then that also will be an ignored call.
