We will get a pause for anywhere from 10 seconds to 2 minutes at least every hour. It is obvious when watching Netflix or Hulu or HBO or prime.

It rarely affects my web surfing so I get to ignore it. I can handle an occasional entertainment pause.

But it destroys the phone's ability to maintain a Wi-Fi call. In my phone I might be able to make use of it 5 minutes later. In M's phone it causes some internal crap that flips out her networking and pretty much everything else for a while and she's not going to be getting any phone calls at that point. Mine works while I'm sitting next to her and hers doesn't. Sometime later hers will start working, maybe it got rebooted and maybe it didn't.

And even if we can do fallback Wi-Fi for the voice call, texts really require a cell connection. I'm sure I could come up with some forwarding juggling situation but I'm not going to do that.

That comes down to me going insane trying to support an Apple specific problem, at least Apple specific here. And I don't do Apple. Not that I'm angry with them, I've just crossed the point of being unable to flip back and forth between the Apple and Android interface seamlessly and I'm sticking with the Android rather than being confused by the Apple.

The moment I attempt to do anything that alters M's current phone configuration, add software, forces her to click one button, I own 100% support of every interaction with that phone from that moment forward.

Not going to do it.
