A compelling reason to me would be if someone near me felt ill, I
switched off the DECT (quietly) and then they felt better, then
switched it back on and see if they complain again, if not I would ask
"How are you feeling?"  If ill, that would be compelling enough to me.
 Maybe repeat a few times for consistency.

No complaints, then no problem....
