Research direction
Start with sim_usage in airalo/airalo.py and the cache implementation in airalo/services/sim_service.py, then compare its behavior with the linked Airalo API rate limit documentation. Done means establishing whether callers can refresh or bypass the five-minute cache and documenting or implementing the agreed behavior with appropriate rate-limit handling.
