Keep in mind that this is characterized as a temporary travel SIM for foreign visitors.
I'm fairly certain a person's right to port out their number is protected by the FCC. https://www.fcc.gov/general/wirel...ility-wlnp
E-sim companies like Airalo and Alosim have been offering 3 gb for $11 for a long time now, and sometimes offer credits at a steeply discounted rate. I got 5G service on AT&T using Alosim on a recent trip using credits that I scooped up at 50+% off, so I ended up paying ~$5 for 3 gb. I've also used Airalo in the past without any issue, although it's been a while. This deal is obviously cheaper but if you're on the fence about the company or service, there are alternatives that work great and aren't much more expensive.

Edit: I should add that those companies don't offer a number or calling method, so I just use my Google Voice number on data to make calls. Might be another thing to consider for some.

SIM can't be sent outside HK, so eSIM-only apparently.

I personally will not do business direct with T-Mobile, because they have been compromised numerous times and do not protect customer identity information such as social security number, address, etc.
I will use an mvno, however, and I would be very interested in porting my special use cell phone over to them to have three gigs per month for $10, Plus tax.
I don't believe you have to give your SSN unless you're going postpaid (which usually isn't worth it). You can also protect your credit card by getting a "virtual" one at privacy.com (or their app). You can designate the virtual number to only work for one merchant and set a limit on it.

Thanks. Nice to have just in case.

Will be looking into the Mexico Airhub eSim for our next trip there. My postpaid tmo plan has unlimited data but it's slow as all hell in Mexico. 128kbps I believe.

The only issue is that ping is 300 to 400ms as all data traffic is routed through Hong Kong - still, phenomenal backup/secondary service!
Yes. I use a VPN to protect my data but the ping is horrible. Personally for me, I haven't been hugely inconvenienced by it.

It's a foreign start-up, catering to global travelers so not really.
I understand that. But some of the mistakes seem like it's only due to carelessness rather than language barrier. English is my 3rd language so I tend to notice such things more.

Edit: Now the site is unavailable 🙃

Some people are more motivated to care about doing their best to do things right than (seemingly many) others. Thank you for being one of the former - your mastery of a third language is indeed impressive.
