Most of the interactions we have with our phones take place via the touch screen. If the display does not respond, you do not know how to interact and carry out some simple functions, even if a simple restart might solve the problem. 

It's even worse when the screen of your Galaxy S9 is broken, making the device almost unusable. If the phone crashed and the display broke, this inconvenience makes it impossible to perform even basic tasks like turning off Galaxy S9 with a broken screen using the on-screen power menu.
