Even with large accounts the carriers still impose limits on tethering. If you’re getting unlimited tethering, it’s probably actually a “pool” of data.”
Even there, there’s some differences as prioritization works differently when you are using pool resources.

For 95% of users, there’s no problem at all. When people push the limits, they find themselves in a pickle. I’m familiar with an organization with >50k devices across 4 major carriers 4-5 years ago. They probably had <500 people who required some sort of exception, ranging from a different plan to a more appropriate device and plan, to someone doing something crazy.
