This is fantastic, I wish it was unnecessary to begin with, but this is a critical piece of the Linux Phone.

These are exciting times in FOSS.

This is excellent! Does anyone know if the PinePhone Pro supports eSIM?

Not built-in, but a physical eSIM might work.

Does anybody know if eSims themselves run foss and just use credentials for the service provider?

Excuse me if the article mentions that already.
