If you're changing carriers, you have to get a new SIM, which costs $$ and shipping/drive time.

- mort96 3y agoI change carriers so incredibly rarely (way less than once per decade) that I've never even considered that as an annoyance. Even if I did switch carriers, I can't imagine that I'd have found it to be much of an issue, switching carriers isn't exactly urgent. And the one-time cost of a new SIM is really low. But I will admit that it's a potential advantage of eSIM. If you do switch somewhat frequently, I can see it being convenient (assuming all the technical stuff works out).
- wryanzimmerman 3y agoDepends on where you are, in a lot of the world a new sim is a few dollars from any convenience store on every corner, whereas I have no idea where I’d have to go to even talk to someone about an eSIM.
