Correct! But the problem with that lens is the size, as a result details will be only limited to the center of the image. But the magnification will be super high!

Why not, you can put a magnifying glass against the camera to get magnified result but you won't get the same quality of glass in a magnifying glass or a macro lens attachment available in the market. And the quality of glass is directly proportional to the quality of image. BTW I used this trick in early 2011 when macro lenses were not easily available on e-commerce websites.

I think it's great. It's way more satisfying to DIY with stuff you have around the house. If absolute image quality was the primary concern, you'd use a camera with a much, much, much larger sensor attached to a lens that costs more than the phone.
