5G is from the 3gpp organization, which is basically a European
organization.  Who cares about Verizon?  CDMA - America's attempt to
answer 3gpp -  was a bust.  If by /drastically/ "limit
entrepreneurship", you mean to open access to the network (as opposed to
using it as a (rented) utensil), then I can only wonder who you are.
