Cannot create new gmail account

Hello, I am having an issue with not being able to create a new gmail account. The account creation page gives me a scanning page to use to verify my phone number, the problem is my phone number cannot be used anymore because of google's incredibly dumb and honestly should be removed, policy of limited accounts for one number. This would not be an issue if the page simply gave me the option to input another phone number, but it does not. It simply forces me to use my old phone number with the linked URL, and does not give me any option to input another number. I have tried looking this up on google for help, nothing there. I have tried creating my account through youtube and ios settings to bypass the phone number restrictions, but they don't work either.

Google, remove this please. Noone likes it and it's useless anyway. This wouldn't even be an issue if you simply gave the option to put in another number but you don't. This looks like major incompetence on google's part and a major oversight. Please help anyone, thanks in advance.
