Good question! The term "distasteful" means unpleasant, offensive or causing dislike. Its not unpleasant and it doesn't cause dislike, and offensive is too strong of a word. It's just not done. It's a chain of command thing. You need to follow the chain of command. Check out the link on Demons and the Pantheon of Hell. It's kind of like at work. You don't go and talk to the President of the company because you need a new pen. But, if you've got something to say that is "important", and you don't feel that your getting your message across to anybody else, then yes - you'd attempt to contact the President. But, how are you going to know what's "really important" if your just starting and you don't know much yet? You don't know. So, follow the chain of command and ask a High Priest. They are very knowledgeable and are working in the office so to speak. They all have a direct phone line to Satan. It also depends on, why you want to contact him. Their are many rituals and things you can do to honor Satan and you can pray to Satan and let him know that he's your God and you appreciate him. There are all kinds of things you can do in that regard. Another thing is Satan works with an inner circle much like the President at your current job, accept on a vastly larger scale. You need to respect that he's extremely busy doing some very critical and important projects regarding humanity i.e. he along with many of us who have been dedicated for a time are involved in a war. That's what's up with the inner circle. Ask a High Priest on here your question. Their really busy too, but they would be a good first route. Hope that helps.
