Is anyone else frustrated with the current mechanics of using two eSIMs when one of them is for work?

Specifically, if I'm using my MacBook to respond to a work text then it automatically switches my line to my personal which defeats any privacy purpose I had to get a work phone number.

My work around on the iPhone at least was to switch my work line into a green bubble (sms/rcs) number only. This helps the issue a bit but it limits my ability to use the SIM the way I want to of course.

I've already sent feedback to Apple, but it would be awesome if they really broke down features that are meant for people who use the extra eSIM for work.

If anyone one knows a work around that would currently stop my MacBook from automatically switching to my personal iMessage line when I am texting work contacts it would be much appreciated! Thanks!
