Have you splashed with it yet? I first did the zero play, and my first dive taught me to put some back in.

But no extras? You can buy just the corrugated hose. I think DGX sells that. If it has a pull dump, no one will force you to reconnect it, if you don't want it. When I set up 6 Zeagle Express Techs when I was teaching, I converted them all to 12" hoses. It seems like they were 6 yards from the factory. I just tossed the pull line when I put on the much shorter hoses and made new ones from scratch.
Yea, no extras, unfortunately. I'll see what John @ NESS has lying around.
12" is too short on me, 16" comes closest to right for me.
I have yet to figure out what one would do with the 22" versions. Maybe for Andre The Giant?

DGX did not lie to anyone. That is really harsh. They are top notch. They told you why they manufacture their equipment as they do and if you want to modify it from how they provide it you are on your own or maybe go into the business. Only a handful of BP/wing users will even consider a pull dump.
I understand the @The Chairman and some enjoy the pull dumps and appreciate the differences they prefer but in my Hogarthain ethos a wing and a pull dump are like oil and water. It makes no sense to me but I am not you, if you want it different from how DGX configure their products, plenty of people have provided the means and method to do so. Scubapro, AL, Cressi, DGX, nobody is going to tell you how to modify their gear from as how manufactured, you want it different, make your own.

While I agree with your sentiment, his comment was directed at Dive Rite, I believe. It's pretty common for people to accuse others of lying when they find information that's contradictory. After 67+ years on this planet, I believe I've learned how to get past that feeling, and just concentrate on the solution rather than the blame.

Dive rite uses integrated pull dump forever.
Is it on all their wings??? I'll have to check my nomad. That's pretty rad. FWIW, I dive a modified Hogarthian set-up. I believe that's the way Main intended it to be: just right for me.
Option for pull-dump or elbow on them (at least most.)
True, true, I have also had several dealings with DiveRite and so whatever I said about DGX applies there as well.

The line that pulls the dump was a bit to long on my wing. I simply replaced it by a 2.5mm nylon line. Very easy to install, very easy to change length. And it is more than strong enough.
