Maybe it's just a bit pointless?

It's usual to have a disposable useless number. For example, on a recent holiday, all the b&b owners wanted a Whatsapp number to message me on. Also, there are school whatsapp groups that are useful once in a blue moon. It's nice to just have an ability to send a message without committing my main number to Whatsapp.

I just give them my number. Why not?

Don't you end up having 2 phones to check and charge? I'd feel like a drug dealer if I had a burner phone I had to keep checking.

Three if he has a work phone as well.

You are confusing personal transport with public transport. People are no more likely to share their cars than they are to have the most occupant efficient use of their homes.

There was one memorable occasion when my entire 4-mile route home was a single stationary queue of cars. As I sailed past on my bike, I reckoned it was about 1.33 occupancy per car, so at 300 cars per mile was a total of just 1600 people stretched over 4 miles. Madness.
