This is not a big problem if you are developing something amazing
targeting thousands of potential users, as long as testing cellular
connectivity is not a crucial use case.

The device program has the objective of offering developers easier
access to real devices in order to have their software ready for real
users. Having such device for personal can be considered as a
"collateral effect".  :)
