The thing I truly hate is when you have two telephone number fields.
One for landline and one for mobile. I mean who in hell has a

People who live in places with spotty, or no, mobile coverage. We do
exist.
Catering for people in minority situations is, of course, important.
Catering for people in the majority situation is probably important too.
A good experience would do both, in a comfortable way for either.
Continuing with the example, if you have a single phone number field, or
let a mobile number be entered in a field marked for landline, you will
probably assume you can text to that number. I see this all the time on
signups that are attempting to provide some sort of 2FA - I enter the
landline number and the website tries to text a verification code to it
(rather have an authenticator app for 2FA anyway, but that's a different
argument)
Suggests maybe labeling should be something like:
* Number you want to be called on
* Number for texted security messages, if different
Never seen that, though :-)
