It's a mixed bag for me. As you've noted, it takes a special headspace to really start producing with a camera, and it just won't happen if you're trying to shoot while out and about.
On the other hand, interesting stuff does have a tendency to happen when you aren't expecting it, and it's nice to be ready. There have been a few times that I was supremely glad I had my camera with me. This is one of them, and it ended up going into a /p/book in I think 2016? It's not like, an especially amazing photo or anything and doesn't represent the overall theme of my work, but I'm glad I didn't just shoot this on my phone.
