its great that Git wants to explain what it got to offer to me, but why on step #7 it is mandatory to create a new account??

this killed entire positive experience, in my view.

Github wants to explain what Git has to offer you. I assume they want to see you as a potential customer, and if nothing else it gives you a real live low-risk git repository to play with after you're done with the tutorial.
