I'm hearing what you are saying, but I don't understand it. As I said, 988 is the first problem we have had, and thus it is the first indication that this is even unusual in the first place. I could see why you would find no reason to do it greenfield but I don't see the motivation to rip it out. That's why I ask what other problem it has, or what other reason there is to consider it outdated. (Aside from "it was initially done for a reason that is no longer relevant" - that does not hold water to me because phone numbers themselves exist for the same reason. If we invented VoIP today, everyone would use SIP URIs only, so it would be the same as your email address.)
