I didn't suggest to lie, I said, what if the customer actually doesn't have a mobile? Have we reached the point now where if someone claims not to have one, they're lying?

I should clarify i wasn't referring to myself - I have a mobile (deGoogled, at least). But there do exist people who don't want or need a mobile device.

You replied to “I forgot my phone” and I thought you were helping that argument.

No, wasn’t a lying argument. If you go out without your phone, fair answer to give.

sure, but you may still have a landline. but... the whole "we need this for returns" line is just weird.
