a magic link is not 2FA if it doesn't also require a password. it's 1FA, they just replaced the one factor.
honestly i really hate websites that do that and yet don't allow password-only 1FA. like sure, i understand that the average user's password discipline is crap, but as a power user i'd really like it if all my accounts weren't tied to all my other accounts sometimes.
