Comment by Mossy9

What I was refering to was the "why", not the "what" or "how". This is not a good function name to my eye, but YMMV: get-station-id-working-around-vendor-limitation-that-forces-us-to-route-the-call-through-an-intermediary-entity.

Instead, a comment can clearly and succintly tell me why this implementation is seemingly more complex than it needs to be, link to relevant documentations or issues etc.
