A few years ago a non-technical friend factory reset their phone only to realize they hadn't actually logged into their Google account in years and didn't remember the password. They didn't have any spare phones to use and didn't want to go without one while they were recovering their account. It took me about five minutes to find a prepackaged exploit on Google and bypass the FRP. This wasn't some obscure model from a budget manufacturer either, it was a flagship Samsung (iirc) that was still receiving updates.
