I'm digging out from under a weekend of email and maybe this has been
covered already, but most of the time you are talking to a sales guy who
has been given a check list and told to get these answers. It assumes
that the installer of the PBX knows which ones to ignore for what is
being ordered. Even when you graduate up to a entry level tech that
proof reads the checklist to verify there is nothing in conflict, you
may get asked similar questions again. 

The other answers where spot on. This hopefully will give you confidence
in why so much was not relevant.
