The Idea has a piece of the internet!
So many accounts are built around a one-to-one relationship. In my case, we had an apple account at work that suddenly required MFA. Non-negotiable.
The problem was, this account had been treated as a one-to-many account. Both myself, the US and the UK team had access to this account. All of a sudden only I had access to the MFA code and it was my responsibility to share the code, even at 2 am.
Despite trying to, removing the MFA was impossible, the only option was to add multiple other numbers.
So now we have one apple account we use for development, that has multiple trusted mobile numbers on it, all of which get MFA codes.

But that's just my problem, there are other use cases:
- Logging into GoDaddy for billing purposes
- Developer account sharing
- Account sharing with contractors, think Mailchimp
