Passwordless logins where the session expires after a couple hours of inactivity are good for services that are prone to password sharing. For example, if you subscribe to Anthropic's claude.ai you can only log in with a magic link delivered by email, and it's a short-lived session. That makes it difficult to share one subscription with multiple people.

just setup an auto fwd email rule, or login to your friends email account. No one here would commit such a crime of opsec, but we're not most people.
