My question, why a physical sim tray when an electronic sim works just fine?

Hello Everyone, And so it begins. I was in one of my local Apple stores, yesterday taking a look at iPhone 14 Pro Max. It is my hope to purchase an iPhone 14 model with a physical SIM tray. While discussing this with a store manager, I was somewhat surprised to learn that, according to him, the store has been inundated by customers who only want to buy iPhone 14 with a physical SIM tray. He told me that they are working on crafting an in-store response to the enquiries designed to discouraged customers from seeking a physical SIM tray. He followed that up by saying, "I know you, Mark, and no response is going to keep you from getting that SIM tray model, if that is what you want." (smile) He is a very smart man (smile). So, the search begins. Does anyone know away to purchase an iPhone 14 Pro Max with a physical SIM tray, from within the United States? Some people are saying that if you buy a model from the Apple online store, without designating a wireless provider, that Apple will ship you a model with a physical SIM tray. However, I cannot locate anyone to confirm this. Make no mistake, I'm not above taking a short trek up to Canada to pick up a model but if I can avoid it, I would prefer to do so. I have a friend who is heading to Japan in a couple of weeks and, of course, I could have the friend pick up a model, in Japan, but that makes me somewhat uncomfortable; I don't know why. I think I'd rather go to Canada, in person, to grab a model. All replies greatly appreciated. Mark -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
