It's a user, personally, I hate these things. I almost always have my password vault at my fingertips. And I just want to paste my damned password. Instead now I got to flip over to my email app, hope to hell that the email actually arrives in a timely manner, etc. If it was available is an option? Fine. But I've seen people to use these almost exclusively is the login mechanism. Hate it. It's not that it doesn't work, it's just inconvenient for me more often than not.

I think that it's horrible for magic links to be the only option, especially for mobile first applications. There's also issues with cookies and webviews and system browsers in that scenario that make it a bad fit.
But for apps that I'm just trying out or not very committed to, creating detritus in my password vault is worse than toggling to a different app.
