I've been using a physical sim for a while and while I normally would be fine with esim I've heard of various issues with them including having tethering data be used as normal data. There's also the ease of switching between phones with a physical sim so for now I'll continue using it.
You have a separate data plan for tethering?
No I've read about issues where after switching to esim people have had all phone data get reported as if it was tethered. For example if you have 2 gigs of tethering data included with your unlimited plan then you effectively have only 2 gigs of data if this issue affected you.
I didn't know anyone had a separate limit for tethering.
