This feature is not providing voice prompts as a security measure.

No. The permissions are for "userless" permissions, and hence should be
tested from the PSTN. Testing it from the inside is perhaps not a good test
case, as it is designed to be used from outside the network.

I think it is common to want to maintain a level of security if using a DISA
feature set, and one way to protect it is without voice prompts. (i.e., the
user has to know the sequence).
