I hate this. If I know the password I should be able to log in to my account no matter what (unless if I have 2fa enabled). Sadly companies like Google and MS do not like this idea, they also often use the excuse that they can't verify you in order to mine your phone number.

"Edit: Account recovered. I used chromium to login (which I never do) and then back to Firefox"

How can google keep getting away with this? MS got into trouble with IE with much less.
