So if someone send me contact, I just have to click on the number.

Do you mean a mobile number in raw text instead of a MMS VCard?
And you want to be able to initiate a call or message using the number in the text with a click?

I never seen somebody use MMS VCard.
I thought about it longer and the best would be just copy it and every number. Numbers in messages are mostly important. (main post changed)
(Maybe not just one number (without dot/comma/dash/slash etc. and then another number), but every other number.)
(and we should think about dot/comma/dash/slash etc. between numbers(, but not in end of number) )

And it should be on by default

In my opinion, this would be a very helpful setting to include. See below for some more information.
So, if I miss a call by being offline my provider sends me an SMS with the missed number and some other information regarding the missed call, e.g. date, time. In most cases, I do not recognize the number. Therefore, in order to know whose call I missed, I have to enter the number into my dialer app and see which contact it is. Unfortunately, the number is not clickable, so I have to either copy the number or type it manually. Copying the number requires the following steps:

  1. Long press the message
  2. click 3 dots in the top right
  3. click "select text"
  4. select the number
  5. copy to dialer app

In total, a minimum of 5 clicks is required to know which number tried to call me. In my optinion, this is not the easiest solution.

Describe the solution you'd like
Would it be possible to add a setting to make phone numbers clickable? In more detail, recognize the phone numbers as links and if someone clicks the number then the dialer app should open with the number already inserted. Furthermore, if someone would like to only copy the number or send an sms, make these options available by long pressing the clickable number.

Additional context
I was very very surprised to hear that the SMT suit was sold to a company with no advice. Therefore, I am delighted that someone is continuing the project - keep up the good vibes!

@m0byn I though about it too. But first step should be coping all numbers imho. Its more useful. Plus it helps with implementation of your idea in the future.
