No, that's only supported on the P50 and P130.

No it says that the unit will reject them (see * below). (Why? I don't know).

That's as it's described in the release notes.

I must have missed that part "This dedicates the unit to data calls." ?

Unclear, for sure. I've copied tech pubs on this...

* The pertinent sentence in the description was:

You can also set any Pipeline to reject voice calls, designating it for
data only.
                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

i.e. even the P75 rejects voice calls, rather than answering them to POTS
ports.
