I was just going to add Wireguard VPN as a solution for the Cellphone hotspot.

Available at 10 Hamgates and many other nodes. Mikrotik V7 OS works well. Go here for a howto http://hamgatepa.ampr.org/docs/Programming%20the%20MikroTik%20hAP%20lite%20for%2044net%20VPN%20use.pdf

On the client side, using Mikrotik can be done with Wireguard if on RouterOS v7.  Use an AP as a client to the Cellular Hotspot and build Wireguard tunnel back to “VPN Concentrator” somewhere.

Of course would require someone on remote end to have public IP to terminate tunnel and route the 44net subnet allocation.

I have done this, but both ends of tunnel and subnet allocation are all in my control.  If interested, I can go more in depth.
