Nope, the ATZ quirk is clearly a bug, and ISNT documented AT ALL.

Well, if you never change the port from the speed used for
the &W you wont see the bug, so thats hardly very surprising.

And since it only affects ATZ, even those who do use a port speed thats
not the one that was used in the &W wont see it unless they only have an
ATZ modem init string. And presumably most of those dont use their modem
for incoming calls so wont notice the RING effect even if they do either.

Its an absolutely classic genuine bug, not documented AT ALL.
