A New Bage (idea): Verified Phone Badge
If you knew that the member had a verified phone number on your account, it would help prevent alt accounts and know there trust worthy, It could also help server moderators dicide if they should get banned because there a raider or self-bot. (Yes i know you can set servers to verified phone numbers only but that only works with servers that have enabled that)
Discord should encourage people to add phone numbers to there accounts to make avoiding bans harder and less alt accounts.
Main reason it should be added: EVERYONE LOVES EXTRA BADGES :D

Okay so, I see why this could be useful, however I do not think a badge would be appropriate for this. I think a better way to implement this would be with the Discord API. Let us check if a user has a verified phone number on their account with API. This could allow us developers to make verification systems which could auto kick or warn moderators about users who do not have a verified phone number on their account.
On the other hand, you can set your server moderation level to highest, which will let users without a verified phone number only read messages and block them from doing anything else (talking, reacting...) until they don't add a phone to their account (Note that giving roles to user on join will bypass this limit). Using this you could ensure every single member of your server has a verified phone number.
In conclusion, this does sound like an interesting thing to add but I would personally like for it to be added in the API because I do not want to annoy my members with having phone numbers on their Discord accounts, but would still like to be able to check if they do.
