That's the community's choice not discords... https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/216679607

And discord is making it impractical for those communities to make that choice

Your comment still doesn't make any sense. Either you want the highest verification tier and go with phone verification, or you don't. It's your choice as admin. As a user you can just delete the phone number from one account and use it to verify another... you will have a timeout [2] but both accounts will be verified. Is it annoying? Yes. Is it understandable to rate limit it? Yes. Is it impractical? No.
