I'm not much of an expertise at this~
but I'll assume it's to prevent botting programs that create multiple accounts for exceptional reasons like...
sending spam and such?

or like the other people said, to confirm who you are.

Because they need to confirm who you are.

If that's really a problem for you, you should create a new email account, like Google or Yahoo Mail. Then you can supply that address instead, and still receive the emails.
