As I read his blog post, he formed it with real address information, but
his assertion is that it would have been just as easy to form it with
fake address information, as the address information is not validated by
Companies House in any way.

James: is that correct?

(BTW, as others have said, I'm not convinced that either rejecting
"suspicious" names, or requiring a landline, is the way forward here.)
