As @jckl1957 has said its eBays rules and we just got to play by them, if you are registering the best advice I can give you is to buy a cheap 2nd phone and have a sim in that as that is the number you will need if you wish for eBay to contact you, plus it stops random people calling or messaging you off here which is rather annoying.

It really does not matter what UK law is.
If Ebay expect business sellers to provide a phone number to be on their public details, then you will have to supply one.
I don't think (this is from memory but you could check yourself) that all UK business sellers do have a phone number in their 'about' section.

I bought an item from ebay (collect only) I will have to make a 9hr drive to pick itg up. we arranged a time and date, If on the journey some hold/bradown how can i let the seller know or if the seller has problems .
Why could ebay add a yes/no to let both sides agree to show numbers (on completion of sale,paid)

Once you have completed a purchase you can exchange phone numbers.
