What a strange irrelevant comment to make.
If this comment was meant in good faith you should be suggesting Paul Dirac.

Another hold out here stung by the app update. Had to uninstall and head off to one of the APK sites to get the old version which has sorted the short term issue out, but having been more than happy with the ease of use of Sonos I'm considering selling up and heading back to something more hacky. Annoying as I've got plenty of other hacky stuff I'd rather be doing.

Number ranges
All those asking "how hard can it be" to sort out cross border roaming issues are conveniently forgetting that whilst continental countries do indeed have these issues, they have separate number ranges which makes it trivial to figure out whether a SIM is roaming or not.
Scotland doesn't have a separate number range.
There may be solutions that don't necessitate a whole new number range, but the standard solution would be a new MCC (Google 'IMSI') for Scotland and 5 million or so new SIMs. Once down that road you'd also allocate a new CC (i.e. dump +44).
All clearly costing money.
It can be done of course, UK geographic numbers have changed structure a few times in recent years with associated cost and inconvenience.
