Evolution, last time I checked, selects for stuff that a species regularly does on a very long timescale. We have not had telephones invented for long enough for them to be relevant to the way our brain evolved

For what it's worth, we haven't had doors much longer relative to how long our brains have been evolving. The time between doors and telephones is a hiccup in comparison.
