This is patently false.  If it were true, then I would have to renumber
every time I changed telephone companies.  I don't, so, obviously, there
is some solution to this problem.  Now I'm not saying that I necessarily
want to accept the overhead and risks of SS7 to solve this, but, there
are, obviously, routing tricks that can be used.
