> Say your sibling was mugged in Mexico and the local little police station let them borrow the landline to call the only number they still remember without having to check their contacts in their phone. Are you not going to pick up?

Just wait for the deepfaked voice call scammers. Their best bet is to work up the hierarchy; a tiny local police station knows how to get in touch with a bigger police station that can contact an embassy, etc.

> There are a lot of these little edge-cases. Journalists, lawyers representing class action suits, government id expiring, and so on.

All of these use-cases allow someone to spend the time to contact you via your preferred contact method, whatever that might be.
