Excellent post. I just wanted to comment on one item:
What I really like about T-Mobile is that they use wifi calling that doesn't require a micro cell or other special equipment (that the cell company is happy to sell / rent you for an outrageous cost, given that it uses your internet connection and data and just basically duplicates the same wifi functionality that is build into your phone). And using wifi instead of micro cell means you can use that mode anywhere you have a wifi signal (home, business, friend's house, etc.)
At home, I have our phones automatically connect to our home wifi and all calls, texts, etc. work perfectly even though the cell coverage can be dicey, especially in our basement. I also use that feature at work, as I sit in the middle of a very large metal framed building and cell signal is weak or non-existent.

Further, T-Mobile will loan/rent or sell you a micro cell spot for your home if the coverage is weak. This is huge for some folks (like me). T-Mobile is very Wi-Fi calling friendly.
