You forget that Twitter purchased an SMS aggregator a few years back. SMS sending is near free for Twitter. I still remember integrating all of the VPNs to the carriers to support this mess.

"Near free" is expensive at that scale. Look at Twilio's S1, Twitter's costs can't be much lower than theirs.
