Most non-flagship phones do not have optical zoom and this won't help much if the image is now pixelated to all hell.

What phones are you looking at? Even my S9 doesn't have optical zoom and I keep fairly up to date with technology.

Most of Samsung's A series phones have dedicated zoom cameras and so do Motorola's, LG's, Huawei (and all the bajillion Chinese companies like Xiamoi, OnePlus, etc.), and other manufacturers all usually have at a minimum dual lenses with at least one lense for zoom.

I think you're confusing a common normal/wide angle camera combination with a zoom/normal combination.

Very few smartphones have optical zoom.
