     Interesting, but - as you say - only applicable to Pixels (and the odd   
   "stock" Android phone).   
      
     For the large majority, one has to assume that Airplane mode turns off   
   all radios, unless proven otherwise. (For example on Samsungs and my   
   previous Huaweis.)   
      
     That's the main problem with Android, very little is 'standard'/   
   the_same for different brands/models, especially in this category   
   (settings/toggles).
