the advantage is that you have a working internet connection when you land and do not need to go through the hassle of purchasing a real SIM or eSIM in the country.

Tod, don’t let this get to you. There are so many mentally unstable people out there. You are doing a fantastic job so please stay on!

yes, you are right. I have never encountered it in Thailand even when I did not have a long term visa yet. Thai immigration was only interested in where I was staying. But a few months ago when I checked it for a flight from Frankfurt to Bangkok I mistakenly handed them my passport without the non-O visa (as a dual national I have two) and they immediately asked about the return flight from Thailand.

yes. Actually the airline will require it unless you have a long term visa for Thailand.
