The problem is some carriers (here's looking at you Sprint) will still lock you into a contract even if you pay full price on the equipment or bring your own. Then if you cancel you still have to pay the ETF and that doesn't exactly seem right to me. If that happens to be the only network that works where you live then you are stuck with the contract they provide.

Sprint doesn't require a contract when you bring your own phone. I have two of my 5 lines that were started with out their phone, but one I already owned on my own, and those phones still enjoy contract free services.
Yes, there are some, okay, many reps at Sprint that think as you state, however, you do NOT need to have a contract... what you're dealing with is an under-educated CSR on the other end of the phone.
