Counterpoint. If you give someone your phone number, you shouldn't be shocked if they try to call it.

Nobody mentioned being shocked; your "counterpoint" is countering a point nobody made. You don't have to be shocked to be busy or avoid answering unknown numbers, ( which is the norm now )

It's expected that a caller with a legitimate professional purpose would leave a message. Has been since the answering machine came around. This isn't some sort of novel wholistic approach to someone's personally, it's a specific, arbitrary filter to find people who don't follow normal telephone interaction behaviors.
