Not true. There is tremendous effort in place trying to get IMS roaming/interop working. http://www.gsma.com/newsroom/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/IR.65-v12.0.pdf http://www.gsma.com/newsroom/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/IR.6...
The problem isn't idiots refusing to interoperate, it's that the standards are implemented in subtly different ways between operators.
So if you're on an AT&T or VZW network making calls to a Sprint person, you have 5 dependencies in play:
1) IMS compatible home network w/ HD voice codec support
2) HD Voice compatible home device
3) IMS compatible destination network w/ HD voice codec support
4) Interop agreement between carriers.
5) HD Voice compatible destination device.
Device churn is just as big a hurdle as the non-trivial network compatibility problem.
