Because not all use cases call for it.
If you are working in a city with wifi everywhere you don’t need a LTE module.
If you are a mobile worker like a field tech thn it makes more sense to have an LTE module.
At the ISP I worked at we did that. Office monkeys has laptops with no LTE while us field engineers did have LTE modules.
Overly technical one.
I was trying to download a 700MB game ISO over ADSL in 2007 in Australia. The modem sync speed was 10Mb of the supposed 24Mb that ADSL could get.
It would take a while but Dad was also home doing whatever he did online slowing the download. As I was doing my CCNA at the time I thought it would be a fun idea to stop all TCP traffic to my dad’s PC so I could download the ISO faster and get to gaming.
About 10 min after configuring the modem dad asked if the internet is working for me and naturally it was but he could resolve DNS but not browse websites as they use TCP (this is pre Quic).
After my download finished I waited a bit longer and changed the modem settings back. I did this a couple times over the years before moving out.
A several years later when dad changed ISP he asked for my help to change the PPPoE details on the modem and he saw a disabled firewall rule called ‘Suck it dad’ and asked me what that was. So I told him, each time he had internet issues when he could resolve DNS but not access web pages it was me enabling that rule so I could download a game faster.
He wasn’t angry just annoyed that he never looked at the modem when trying to work out his connectivity issues.

The same shit as usual with very little difference between the 2.
Neither will do anything meaningful and push Australia further into USA 2.0 territory.
What’s worse is those same organisations get corporate welfare (tax breaks) but fight tooth and nail to prevent their workers from getting it.
