But is the QR reusable? If not, you'll have to somehow prove your identity or existing number ownership to get a new one.

Uhm... Not sure ๐Ÿค”... If it isn't I guess it will be similar to Sims you have to login in account or in the worst case go to a shop of your providers and request a new one I guess. I mean when I requested my e-Sim last time it was by email and just providing the national id number (not from USA), so it was pretty trivial maybe too much ๐Ÿ˜…. And for travel you just register and pay and you get it, not much validation although usually what I got was data only, no calls.

In my experience, yes. I've used the qr to transfer a sim to a new phone as well.
