Todd, I don't think it's feasible for Apple to put in Settings to allow for the smallest customization which a very small percentage of users might want. I think most people want Voiceover to announce who is calling without having to pick up the phone and fiddle around with it before they hear the number. This would be like saying Apple should put in something for sighted users so that the caller's number is only displayed when they touch the screen. If the phone is across the room, if it is in my pocket or maybe I have dirty or wet hands the call probably has gone to Voicemail by the time I check the screen.If somebody doesn't want this announced because they are in a meeting then they probably wouldn't want the phone to ring either and it's an easy thing to flick the Mute switch which means the phone will not ring and Voiceover won't say anything.
