Interesting question though... I wonder if people on micro-cells and/or
wifi
calling don’t get the alerts. That would be extremely dumb and
irresponsible of
the cell phone carriers, so its likely the case :)

Oddball corner case - I'm at home taking a sick day, and my Moto X4 on
Project
Fi *did* receive the alert text right at 2:18 but did *not* trigger the
amazingly loud and
annoying alert tone. Phone says it's set for wifi calling, but has a tower
in
sight too.
