No argument here that ISDN uses the same method as dual-analog-modem
solutions.

However, the guy in Costa Rica who has no access to cable modem broadband
nor to DSL service is unlikely to have access to ISDN either.  Which is
why I was talking in terms of the POTS, not ISDN.

Now the primary ISP for Costa Rica (VPM) does list ISDN as a service, but
doesn't ISDN have the same "your house must be located close enough to X
connection office" requirement that cable/DSL have?
