I've never answered my phone with the number and thought it a very odd
thing to do.* When I phone someone, I want to hear "hello" or their
name, not their ****ing number.* What use is that?!

Maybe to help the caller realize he dialed the wrong number.

At one time I had a number starting with 926. One day I got a call from
someone (sounded like a teenager) saying "I want some pussy.". I suppose
he thought he was calling 976 (pay services, often phone sex).
