What it exposes across your operation:
• Whether your SIM costs are silently compounding through zombie SIMs, bloated data plans and inventory tax
• Whether your terminal selection process is one skipped TRD away from a six-figure hardware replacement
• Whether a firmware bug or data spike would hit you before your supplier even notices
• Whether your Support team is guessing root causes and flooding Engineering with tickets they can't solve
• Whether you own your MNO/MVNO relationships — or your carrier does
• Whether a single carrier failure is enough to paralyze your entire merchant network
• Whether you're technically locked into your current SIM provider with no real exit path
