What if you use different carriers for termination and origination? How
does your termination carrier validate that your origination carrier has
allocated certain numbers to you and that you're therefore allowed to make
outbound calls with a caller ID set to those numbers? That doesn't sound to
me like something that can be solved as quickly and easily as you imply.
