yeah, i'm not that sure that the setting isn't more than a feel-good setting either.

Let's put it this way. In order for your cell phone's wireless technology to function somebody needs to know your exact location and velocity 100% of the time you have connectivity.
Use SIP trunking instead so at least when you have wifi you can completely disable your 4g connection or opt to not be contactable 100% of the day but still have 4g to fall back on for when you must be contactable on the road. This costs like $2 a month to set up.
