I never said "telecomms" that being a British instigated abuse of good american language, perpetrated on an unsuspecting European community.
In North America, when we talk about telecom requirements, we are speaking about those requirements that need to be met, to prevent harm to the public telephone networks. Ergo, whether or not something works as it should, is not the issue. The only issue is whether a device could cause damage to the public network, could deprive the public network operators of their due revenue, or could deteriorate the quality of service of third parties. (Stated in its most simplistic form). Anything else, is considered "performance" and is not regulated. That is a "caveat emptor" issue. No rocket science, no magick, no martial arts.
