Oh, because I thought that wanting to keep the same number is obvious.
It is the number one reason people don't change phone provider fast
here. It is so important that the law obligates phone companies to
support porting!

If you ask me why /I/ do not want to change numbers, well, all my
relations⁽¹⁾ or my parents relations have that number in their phone
books for several decades. I would have to call people I do not remember
about to tell them my new number.

(1) Relations: family, relatives, friends, acquaintances, business
contacts, employers, co-workers... whoever.
