Unfortunately Optus isn't the right carrier.
Would tunneling Wi-Fi calling via an Australia based server be a workaround? Mrs. Majuki uses Skype to call her sister, so there's not a real need to try this. I have received texts via Wi-Fi calling with my 3 UK SIM. I haven't tried with Taiwan Mobile.

Yes, and the decision reverts to the duration of the trip and quantity of data needed. If my plan included 5 GB of high speed international data per month, I'd be far less inclined to activate an eSIM prior to traveling.
