I think it's for Google accounts in general. Even getting a gmail account requires this.

it's not, it asks for one but you can omit it, even though it will keep bugging you about it from time to time.

It didn't when I signed up, and thus far, I've not been forced to add it.

Perhaps that's a new requirement. Some of us don't bother with mobile phones. I signed up for an account, at one time it asked, another it didn't. Try and empty your browser cache and try again.
