The reason that they use such a large sample size is to eliminate wide
variances that can occur. It all evens out when the sample size is so
large. For every person that is close to a tower and gets great service
from a carrier, there is someone else in the opposite situation. They
won't report results if the sample size isn't sufficient to ensure that
wild variances won't occur.

There will always be situations where the highest rated carrier doesn't
have coverage at a specific subscriber's home, office, or frequently
visited locations.
