is there some sort of way to request an area for 2G to NOT shut down?

Sorry Fellas, T Mobile isn't anticipating to keep their older 2G GSM network forever because they want to focus on 5G and 4G. It's time to let go of 2G phones and your old phones because they're not compatible on a 5G/4G network. T Mobile maintaining their own 2G network is expensive. T Mobile maintaining 5G Ultra Capacity, 4G LTE, Voice Over LTE, and Extended Range LTE are cheaper. T Mobile wants to save money.

Yes. I know that already and like I said, I was wondering if it was possible to have an area for it to stay. 
Also it doesn't make sense because for them maintaining 2G is only like $500-1000 a month for them, which is how other countries can keep it. Plus they can easily afford that since their newest plan is $250 a month. What also doesn't make sense is it's already crammed with LTE, making it a 2G-LTE network which are easier to maintain. 

2G phones or older phones are not compatible on a 5G and 4G network. 5G and 4G phones or newer phones are compatible on the T Mobile network.
