BT is required to _OFFER_ POTS.

That doesn't mean it's mandatory, but the current madness has it more expensive to not take it.

They should continue being required to _offer_ POTS (just like the old 450 line TV), but if enough customers choose not to take it then they have a good argument for having the requirement rescinded some time in the future.
