Why did they not just put a dedicated door answering phone disguised as a doorbel in the apartments? Why am I even asking probably because it would cost money.
I’m not sure what you mean by “disguised as a doorbell”. It’s for controlled access buildings where you need to be able to talk to the person at the door and selectively admit them.

Well I understand that. I meant to make it look like an intercom while the inside is basically just a landline.
Because the whole fucking reason was to reduce costs, since everyone is going to have a landline anyway.
My building is like this, it was built in the 60s the concept of multiple phones in a house hold was completely unthinkable at the time.
