clicking on the "forgot password?" it gives you this option.

It's a security measure so in case someone gets ahold of your phone, they can't access your data. It also gives YOU a way back in just in case somehow you forget BOTH your unlock pattern and Google account login info. Better than anyone can pick your phone up and reset it, than to allow them to get into your personal info.
