Business validation is what you should be using for a business site. It's actually a good thing and means that the company is interested in verifying who you are.
I went through the dance with Startcom and agree with the article that the web interface has horrible workflow. However they were clearly doing their best to verify that it actually was a business they were creating an account for. For example, they ignored the phone number I gave them, and instead called on the publicly-listed phone number they found on the internet.
