There might be a reason (or not) for them to do that kind of stuff, but I've
learned that your chances of getting them to change it are quite slim.

Even if they're willing to do it, rolling out that kind of infrastructure
change on a carrier-grade network would mean months of testing and
coordination.

I've tried, it's a waste of time ;)
