I am sorry for my late reply, your email had for some reason ended up
in my spam filter. I agree with you reasoning and I think that making
the Quectel-code generic is a good idea. I went through the modem I
have, and could also not find any modems where the current
Quectel-code would incorrectly match. FWIW:
