This should be far more secure and privacy friendly than a Sim card of a cellular connection. Why isn't this done more often? What are the Pros and Cons. I bet the price is similar as well.

Pros is that you don't need a small, fragile device to use your primary communication method.

But the pros are that it's usually cheaper if you know what to look for.

I guess the cons is that you gotta maintain separate cellular data if you want it. And transfer your number.

You'd only be able to make calls if you have a wifi connection though, right?

Unless you want to maintain separate cellular data.
