Does it end up mattering? If you register Phone X and then put your SIM into Phone Y, I assume it still works.

Seems a silly policy to have.

Unregistered phones get blocked by the networks there after approx. 3 weeks (IMEI blocked by the operators).
So usually for holiday its no problem but for longer stays you can not use the phone anymore before you register it.
