Isn’t this inherent to not choosing an (EDIT: external) account-recovery method?

The flip side to allowing account recovery at Google’s discretion is lessened security for everyone. (Obviously not black and white. And I agree Google should have flexibility for old accounts. But it’s an odd thing to reject a major provider over.)
