What is so special about this phone that it can't be used with the emulated POTS service?  Has anyone even tried?

According to the original post, the answer is yes and there are problems.
 
I am using the same phone I was using over 30 years ago, when it was a real POTS line and I see no difference on Rogers home phone.

"Well, it worked for me" is not very useful for problem solving.
