Agreed. But it's also basic marketing- because someone might react this way, we have to do "X."

It is a carved-into-the-very-fundamental-physical-properties-of-the-universe rule that misstating a phone number in a very public setting will always result in directing people to a phone sex number. Three times over the last three years at my current job I've been involved with emergency fixes to deal with incorrect phone numbers that reached production on web pages. Every single one of those wrong numbers (each different) was a phone sex number.
Apparently there are a lot of phone sex lines.
