Anyway, my conclusion is that you are correct, there is no reason to pay $4/GB, perfectly acceptable plans are available for $1-2 per GB.
Airalo was one of the first movers to sell esim ... but they don't really have anything different compared to the 100+ other esim sellers
(some esim sellers do have special features that others don't)

so Airalo's relying on name recognition/you already have an account/referrals or ads...... but really should be competing on price (or support 24/7, since some esim resellers have limited support)
