Default cell phone antenna question

When using one of those external, mag-mount antennas that plug into
the antenna jack just below the stubby antenna of a flip phone, it is
better to remove the stubby antenna?

On receive, I would think it makes little difference. On transmit,
however, if the stubby antenna is not removed, won't energy be wasted
on in-vehichle propagation that would be better directed to the mag
mount on the roof?
