Easy there- no need to be like that.

The only "fact" we can all be sure of is that Telus would rather sell more products than fewer products. So I don't find it that unlikely that somebody was told "no" when asking for DSL without a phone line.

I know when I worked in sales there were always items that we didn't want to sell; for whatever numbers reason. I have heard my fellow salespeople lie about the stock availability on such items to avoid selling them. I can easily see Telus setting sales targets that strongly discouraged naked DSL. Otherwise the whole issue of naked DSL wouldn't have had to come down to the CRTC forcing them to provide it.
