CDMA matters less and less in the US, but for some reason Qualcomm is seemingly the only company making a modem with comprehensive US LTE band support.

Say what? Intel modems covers all US LTE bands that Qualcomm covers. Qualcomm has an edge on max bandwidth and supporting CDMA, but not LTE bands (for the US anyway).

And Intel isn’t? Intel’s modems have substantially all LTE bands.
