Isn't the whole point of dialling multiple extensions so that a call has
a greater chance of being answered?

Because I might have more phones than mouths :-) If I'm busy with one
conversation, I don't want to hear another phone ring.<br>
I might have a desktop and a portable phone.<br>
<br>
There were a similar wish for queues a month ago or so:<br>
<br>
Given an office/warehouse/home with several phones, but fewer persons.<br>
Queue should only have so many active calls at the same time; eg two
persons in the office, 5 phones.<br>
two calls come in, ringing every phone, two calls gets picked up. Third
incomming call stays in queue until one conversation is terminated.<br>
