We carry the PSTN over the Internet over private IP networks that interconnect with each other over the PSTN.

I know, it's nitpicking.

Yeah. Long-haul fiber that never interconnects directly with the pstn is not part of the pstn. If I order metro Ethernet over fiber to an ISP with a network that peers at a few public IX and privately with Comcast, Google and Facebook, there's no voice framing or call switching underlying most of my traffic.

Check the sibling comment for expressing my concern clearer than I could.
