Re: why not?

Generally, no. Third-party verification effectively replaces this.

But the customer generally has to provide the intended-new-provider with a signed LOA, no?

The port request is not submitted by the customer, per se. It's submitted by the incoming LEC to the outgoing LEC. There is an intermediary called the 3rd party verifier to prevent slamming. Once the customer initiates a change of service, as soon as they hang up with the 3rd party verification, they have no more involvement until regaining dial tone.
