KPN does al government telco stuff because it used to be semi-public. As such, they have a lot of institutional knowledge behind this kind of thing.
I would not trust any other telco to do this better. It seems to me the issue is the commercialization/privatization of KPN. Instead, we should go back to a more semi-public KPN that is assigned to cover this form of critical infrastructure.
Or alternatively, we should not have any telco be a single point of failure.
