Why can't you imagine that? This gatekeeping you're doing is rude and doesn't make sense. 2FA's very purpose is to increase shut outs when enabled.

It might be 2FA's very purpose, but I've found that a 2FA-less account is a lot more distrusting of logins. Some of my relatives don't have 2FA set up and they got more "verify it's really you" prompts compared to my personal MFA'd account.
Because Google is abusing the concept.
