The operators wouldn't be tracking the IMEI of the adafruit GSM modules.
The ICCID of the sim card is unique. But it's not hard to buy pre-paid SIM cards with cash. So what is the ICCID going to tell an investigator.
Your argument is in that strange state of being right in spite of being wrong.
GSM hardware is the easiest for law enforcement to track because the protocol is comprehensively compromised by stingray devices.

IMEI can easily be tracked from manufacturing to point of sale to the specific cell tower it is connected too.
Tampering with gsm equipment or importing unregulated equipment can land you in jail in many western countries.
Pre-paid Sim cards might not be available anonymously in many places. Some will require id, some will require a billing card for data and there are quite a few mixes in between that make purchasing such item an issue if your freedom is on the line.
Not to mention that it gives the investigator a point of sale which is very important.
Stingray or not as its just a nonsensical brand like a billion out there I made it very clear in my post that due to the attention cellular technology has received from law enforcement agencies over the past 20 years or so GSM and other cellular systems are easily trackable.

It is cheaper (+ better looking, weather proof and piece of cake to configure) to buy a couple of Mikrotik routers.
You can get them with multiple Wifi interfaces, LTE and everything else and configure it more easily.

In some countries you won't even be able to buy a pre-paid sim card without an id at tmobile in Germany couple of years ago I was asked for my passport when buying one.
Even in places where it's possible there will still be a mile long trace, even if paid in cash.
Also since mobile phone tracking was a very hot law enforcement topic since the 90's even passive air borne scanners can pint point a handset to about 10m accuracy with ease, when combined with ground sensors and carrier telemetry they can pinpoint to which room of your house you are in.
So yep cool and nifty but if you are in a position in which privacy means life stay away from mobile RF as you are much better off hiding behind commercially available 1.8-5ghz radio traffic with a couple of relays. Also while mono directional antenna's give good signal and also make the signal less noticeable if some one even gets a look at one of the end points they can also easily pin point the other's location if they got highschool/entry collage level physics in their toolkit.
