1. So how do you explain all the eSIM plan choices listed at esimdb.com?Summary
Two reasons why eSim sucks:
1 - barely any carrier support. An eSim only iPhone would change this inside a few months.
2 - Portability. I am unable to move my eSim from my iPhone XS to my 13 pro - I have to go to the carrier's office to ask them. This is a nightmare, and really not in the interest of myself, or the carrier. sim must be portable. Apple probably _could_ solve this by making the standard portable. Whether they will - who knows. Apple seems to be real cozy with the carrier monopolies.
PS: And why I didn't go to the carrier, it's in another country and I can't go just now.
2. Portability sucks, for now, but will improve, especially if Apple forces the issue on lazy carriers.
