So... is there some way to make multiple VoIP phones, connected to the same service at the same phone number, behave like old-school POTS phones in letting you share the call?
About 11 years ago I signed up for OOMA VOIP service. We were one of the very first customers, and are still grandfathered in for unlimited free international service for life.
Up-front costs were high, we had to buy the equipment for about $200 if I recall, we were able to keep our original California phone number, and eleven years later it is still working just fine.
The OOMA feeds an inexpensive Panasonic base station with up to six wireless extensions (seven including the base itself) and works just like old-fashioned POTS. You can have a seven-way conversation, no, eight-way including the incoming caller I guess, and the whole system is so straight-forward and uncomplicated that even I can manage it.
