I disagree with most of what you've written but nevermind that. Two things here:

1) You do have a point, I always make sure the girl also have my number in her phone, preferably with some kind of callback humor associated to it, althought that's not necessary.
2) is she's desperately afraid of "awkwardness" you didn't build enough comfort, even if you build attraction...

With that said I usually text first, I just don't try to "game" over text, just reestablish contact and arrange a date. I might call or not, although I usually don't except for confirming the date or the place... I mostly use whatsapp these days... Way cheaper
