Rear arm rest — what is this for????

So I got excited when I read in the OM that the rear armrest had wireless phone charging. No. What it DOES have is a very strange very small retracting compartment which serves no apparent function…any ideas?

If it is like the S-Class, then you push it again and it will fully extend to reveal the cup holders.
Besides being a pen holder, I reckon that space can also be a straw holder, for its proximity to the cup holders.

I thought it was for a phone, I guess a phone won't fit.
