Here are some details:

Why can't Apple produce a MacBook with a SIM Card slot?

But I can tell you that if Apple were my company to do things exactly as I wish, I would never consider adding SIM card slots to Macs. Enough folks (including you!) have other devices that can serve as WiFi hotspots. And those that do not can access routers most of the time. Real estate in Macs is precious.
