Ah yes, I suspect we can get all the network operators here to agree that any

But seriously, it shouldn't be necessary to have two connections at work, two
connections at home, two connections for each mobile device, just to ensure
that when large providers stop working together you can still reach what you
need to reach.
No, but the providers who provide those connections should be multihomed.
If they're not, I'd consider switching providers. Simple as that.
