True. It's a sad state of affairs. I doubt many get lucky enough to get this far. I am hoping at least that this is one post nudging the status quo in a better direction even if only a little bit.

OMG, guys, thank you very much. Never imagined this would hit front page or even someone ever doing something about it. You've made my day!

Microsoft VP Identity Division, Alex Simons, apologised on twitter and said they will release a fix overnight. I was actually able to log into my account today. But before you get too excited, what they've done is they've completely disabled the sign-in preferences menu and still have the bug - I cannot enable password-less login as it tries to send a notification to my phone, but that is no longer listed on my account. But the system clearly knows about it and wants to send a notification. Unfortunately, it cannot because it also requires it to be a sign-in option. It's a crazy loop of madness.

"The efficiency of Microsoft. Or how the Microsoft MFA system almost brought me to a complete nervous breakdown in under 24 hours." by me.

I hope this bug gets fixed sooner rather than later.

It would be good this early in the development cycle to devote to Material Design. This will simplify the work later on. Also, making use of Android's accounts/credentials system is probably a good idea for streamlined and simplified login.
