Maybe we should support logging in with an OTP to email for many more systems than we do currently? Combined with conditional access and MFA its actually not bad.

No password to remember and supports this "pattern"

Sure, but please make it optional.

I've seen a couple of enterprise/corporate services switch to the "OTP via email" pattern (usually as mandatory 2FA), and I hate it, because there's no way for me to autofill that email OTP, unlike for e.g. WebAuthN or TOTP.
