I don't have a "legal name". Sounds like some sovcit bullshit. I go by several names, none of which is canonical. Maybe other countries formalize this idea, but the countries where I am a citizen/resident do not.

I love that email OTP is good enough for this, but apparently not for anything else, where I'll need an approved verified secure attested super official app.
Which still requires ID verification.
