The worst is that 4.4 is bad and you just have to root it and put on 4.3 or something earlier.

It is indeed trivial.
(Thank you for being so condescendent 
. It is, indeed. On your phone/android version.)
My Android ver is 4.4.2
Trying to manage the contacts list, the options are as follows:
People => Me => Contacts to Display => Customize => Define Custom View
and then it lists, as the only options, my accounts: Skype, e-mail, Google+ (which I didn't activate, but they list it anyway).
My only choices are to include or exclude each account as a whole, except on the e-mail accounts, where there is option to select My Contacts (Current selected), Starred, Friends, Family, CoWorkers, All Others. No option to select Phones only.
(This is a Motorola Phone, sold while Motorola was a Google company; so I believe this is stock Android - no Motorola customizations)
