If it were true, then I would have to renumber every time I changed telephone companies. I don't, so, obviously, there is some solution to this problem. Now I'm not saying that I necessarily want to accept the overhead and risks of SS7 to solve this,but, thereare, obviously, routing tricks that can be used.Tricks reduce reliability and create unecessary dependancies. LNP was a regulatory issue post implementation of V4 so a trick was required.
Correction: LNP was a regulatory issue post implementation of the Numbering Plan and was required. [ Sorry for the typo, second in as many days. Doh! ]
