Return old 2G cell module?

Got the email advising to make change to the 4G cell module. On clicking the request link I got both a confirmation of the order, and a prepaid label to return the old module. No explanation as to why.
Has that been their policy with everyone getting the 4G module? Is there any security risk in doing so, ie any identifying information in the old module being returned? Anybody not returned theirs?

There's no reason I can think of that would be a risk to send it back. Your info is stored in your base station, not a SIM on a module (as far as I know).

In the past we've asked dealers to destroy parts that we paid for or provided replacements for but wanted out of circulation. They didn't destroy them and those old parts found their way into repairs. Then, you see problems crop up you thought were fixed, and were, but those old/bad parts never went away like they were supposed to.
I sent both mine back because otherwise they probably would have ended up in a junk drawer, gathering dust for no useful purpose.
