There is a requirement to simplify access, particularly for managing large amounts of stored data within Files.com. Instead of navigating through firewall rules, etc., users seek the ability to bypass two-factor authentication when logging in via username and password. Missing this toggle could necessitate recreating the account. Additionally, there's a lack of clarity regarding users under this system, making monitoring challenging. However, Files.com does offer SSO, which addresses many of these concerns.

It requires the use of an API key, among other things. There are workarounds and ways to address a few of these issues.
