Have you tried signing up recently? It asked me for a phone number when I did.
I think its possible to leave it empty, but they really try to hide the option

Turn on Google passkey option if your phone supports it.
LPT: Stop using recovery phone numbers if OTPs or U2Fs are an option. Way too easy to fall victim to a sim swap scenario.
I am about to change my number and the thought of it gives me the fear.
