Thankfully, Google isn't copying Apple's dumb SIM strategy (www.androidauthority.com)

Apple has forced its US users to switch to eSIMs without any real benefit. Google, on the other hand, has kept the tried and true SIM slot.

I like esim(s) for the sole feature that "some thief can’t steal my phone and pop out the SIM" and find my device allows me to lock or erase my data on the phone. Current state of esim implementation by carriers doesn't inspire such confidence. So not going esim only, looks to be the better option for now.
