I have been very pleased with uqmi and umbim as alternatives for tiny
embedded devices, and I am hoping that they wiil be updated and
maintained.  But they're not an option at all with the latest generation
modems, and I don't see that changing anytime soon.  They lack all the
5G stuff, multiplexing support, and there is no alternative application
at all for the new PCIe drivers (Qualcomm MHI or Intel IOSM).

We've come to a point where ModemManager is pretty much required on
OpenWrt too.  And I believe that's good.  The alternative isn't
uqmi/umbim or similar, but a desktop distro running on your "embedded"
router.
