Look at it this way

You have a at@t tower and its costing you lets say 5000.00 a month. You sell it and now it has verizon and t mobile on the same tower. Now instead of costing you 5000.00 it is generating 10,000 a month in income. Its a win win for everyone involved. They could be giving the cell tower away and it make financial sense.
They are getting 4.85 billion dollars. Interest alone more than pays what the lease will cost. Instead of costing them money the towers now become income earners.

These towers likely have multiple radios from different providers already that were generating rental income. Crown isn't paying AT&T $4.85B to only collect $2.19B over 10 years.

No crown is buying these towers to add other providers. At@t doesnt rent space to other providers. Crown does.

So T's current towers only have T's radios mounted on them? Extremely doubtful.
