I wonder if that had to do with the underlying business arrangements with the telcos.
They are probably set up to special-case 911 alone for phones with no service/SIM, and getting them to accept a second number is an entire new set of legal and contract arguments.
- justsomehnguy 3y agoIf you have a SIM in the phone than the only thing what prevents you from dialing anything is the cellular operator itself. If you don't have a SIM than it's more complicated because the phone needs to register somehow in the network and, probably, indicate what it's trying to call an emergency number (so the network would allow both the registration and the call to occur). But my $10 on the dialer app just decline it.
