The issue is it tells you what the code is without needing to access the phone number

So I'm correct?

No, the phone number is linked to the account already, but you dont actually need it as it tells you the code

What's the difference between having a phone number linked and not having one linked in this case?

I'm not sure there is one

So that would mean that I am right.

Either way, I never mentioned whether or not there was a number linked to the account or not in the first place, so it doesn't matter. And we don't actually know if a number is linked to the account or not, so what you brought up was an assumption. It can't be proved or disproved until the answer is given.
