The local prefixes of phone numbers don't/couldn't start with 1. If you map ABC to 1, you can't use those letters as the start of a word. (Your number could be GET-SOME but not AND-MORE.) This is because when you dial without an area code, your leading 1 would be interpreted as a long distance call. This is the same reason they didn't use 0, as that's the start of an international call (011). |
