I am not seeing the option for 'You need to choose to activate with Verizon'. is it a dead deal?

Seems like they ran out. Only pixel 9 is now $499 and pixel 9a $299 if you activate with Verizon but they might also run out soon.

Doesn't signing up for a postpaid plan incur a credit check and requires a lot of identifying info? Not a great idea to be doing this repeatedly

It's a soft pull so nothing is going to happen to the credit. Verizon can always block you but then again you have many options to choose from. Ideally, you should do these with an existing Verizon account by adding a new line and cancelling that way Verizon won't care as well.
