Quite interesting, I hear what you are saying. But I am still not convinced. So technically speaking, if you find a provider that sells an unlimited plan to your DID and you make sure to make 24*7 duration phone calls and said plan price per month is less than 24*7*60*recipcomps you will end up making money. I would be very surprised if those providing unlimited plans cost more than 24*7*60*recipcomps
