It's not a network feature - the auto restart of the phone, it's not doing so bc of handshake signal, but rather the lack of one. This is incredibly similar "tech/apple innovation" that is very similar to timed DRM media services.
If you download all your songs from Napster - they will work for a month or two without connecting to a network but eventually the lack of a connection will lock the content, it doesn't kno if your still paying, so it makes you sign in.
This is the same but all behind the scenes. Apple phones are constantly communicating with their network or other devices - if that stops, something fishy is going on bc it's not supposed to be able to.
The restart is prolly more for them - that's probably the solution to most of the issues with a phone losing network connection, just restart it. So they built it in.
Sure it does what phones have done forever and makes you sign in with password or full biometrics once at startup buts that's not new either.
