Being impossible to remove is necessary for the Kashrus?

I think those are for internal checks only. The database is for access by badatz.

Restaurants that ask for your phone number when you order takeout. Ever heard of caller ID?

Many times pople order for others, (+ surprises) and then when there is some problem with delivery etc. it can take their delivery boy extra 20 minutes till they finish their run-around for the correct number. It's 26 seconds during the call that can save 26 minutes later on.

This is pickup, for crying out loud. For delivery, there's so much more information you have to give anyway.

Even so, what if you're calling the store from a home / office phone, then they need to reach you for anything..

Maybe for a big order. But not if I call ahead of just picking up lunch!

What if they ran out of something you ordered? Do you want to drive over only to find out that they haven't started making your order to to the missing ingredient? Or would you rather have them call you and apologize, while finding out what you wanted instead?

Out of the dozens of times that I've ordered, has never happened. And I'd gladly trade it with not having to deal with giving my number for the one time it's happened.

Now, if only they got Seamless…
