You seem to be attempting to isolate applications that phone home from software with a back door. One does not discount the other, and one is not necessarily better or worse than the other. We happen to see more legitimate applications phoning home (CAD/CAE software for example) but Botnet hosts do also.
Phoning home is something that can be detected, so the high end software won't.
