Yes.  But these are probably telco ordering droids, meaning that all 
they know is that they have to fill in the blanks.

I recently ordered a LD PRI from a carrier.  I wanted PRI, switchtype 
either 5ESS or preferrably National.  The order got kicked because I 
didn't specify whether or not I wanted E&M and which type of e&m 
(immediate, wink, etc) I wanted.  I seem to recall a couple of other 
totally non-relevant questions that I had to specify as well...   Or, 
more specifically, convince the droid which was checking the order for 
completeness that they weren't needed.
