Indeed, and I've been considering switching from T-Mobile to Verizon for exactly that reason, much as I like T-Mobile.
I'm a long haul trucker, and there are long stretches of I-90, I-80 and I-70 where I have to roam, and therefore data is capped. It's not a disaster, but it makes it more difficult to stay firmly and broadly (pun intended) connected to the web, my employer and my family when I'm roaming.
I've taken to having my phone look for existing networks whenever I stop. Verizon is almost always available, and T-Mobile is often not. I don't pay attention to Sprint's availability; I left them long ago because they're Sprint.
