Yes that's indeed a common complaint (fear, even?) That those users cite for remaining.
I should also apologize, there's a growing ambiguity wrt "DID" - in this context, I was using it in the correct standards context (Direct Inward Dial); i.e., a phone number 🙂
The acronym has taken on another entirely different meaning as of late, although amusingly enough, both do relate to unique identifiers for people 👍
Thanks for your (as always) insightful observations Danie!

@9165b494 yes my biggest worry is that whatever inter-connectivity, it really needs to be based on a neutral identifier, and not phone number or e-mail address. WhatsApp, Signal and Telegram love their telephone number for discoverability. Ironically this weakness in privacy unfortunately also results in them having the biggest messaging networks (they know that).
