Limits on data are a function of the SIM card you buy and the plan that you sign up for, not of the device. 

 

and that is exactly what they stated:

My cell phone SIM (AIS) has limits on data.

If handholding during initial setting was a selling point, you could have just as well walked into an AIS store

 

No. AIS do not have a 12 month Unlimited 15 Mbps data SIM.

but it sounds like a leap of faith to assume that a pocket router would be the fastest of them all

 

Who here stated that?

I do not believe that to be true in all cases.

Some devices are also data/speed limited.

I would be tempted to check the specs of the device as well as the SIM.

I suppose that it the portable router supports 5G and the OP's smartphone doesn't, that might justify the portable router's existence.

Or you could just re-read the OP's statement as to the WHY they chose a standalone router in the first place.

Do you know of any examples of that?  Some phones are locked to a particular carrier but that's a different issue.   And some phones have a faster LTE and 5G implementations than others, but it sounds like a leap of faith to assume that a pocket router would be the fastest of them all.
