Because if you stick the pedals straight to the axle one turn of the pedals only gives you one turn of the wheel, which limits your speed. And it messes with your steering a bit.
Is a back brake on a mountain bike the one that stops you the most?
Actually, no. It's more difficult for the back brake to stop a bicycle as the bicycle is pulling away from the rear wheel. The front brake stops a bicycle more efficiently because the weight of the bike is pushing forward into the front wheel. But it's important not to rely on only a front brake. The front brake can stop the bike so well that the weight of the bike can shift up and over the front axle creating what is often referred to as an "endo" and will toss the rider over the handlebars.

How do you test each brake on a bike?
Start by pushing the bike along with the bar, then use one brake at a time, Rear brake should easily lock the wheel up when operated. Front wheel should give good resistance. If that feels OK, get on the bike. Build up some speed, then apply a brake. Make a point of scooting backward and bracing your arms before applying the front brake to avoid topppling over.
Who invented the first bike with 12 pedals?
Don't think there's ever been a serially produced bike with 12 pedals. Somewhere, on some occasion, someone has probably put together a 6-seater bike in the in-line, tandem configuration, which would have 12 pedals.
