How hard is it to implement email verification?
The apple one is enforced by apple if you want to go on the app store. The rest follows. Personally I blame apple for starting this bullshit.

A SAML token verification can be implemented correctly in under 50 lines of code. (Without needing anything beyond a basic crypto library for decryption and signature checks ) then you just have a SAML identity to user account mapping table (so that they can have multiple SAML providers and retain access or switch between different accounts).
But yeah, some shady sites use it to get your name and other information. (Which SAML providers should properly inform you about, as they are the ones packing that data based on what the receiving has registered)

not 100% related but i think login should be less user friendly
"here take this 512 byte hash and store it and it's you and if you lose it or have it stolen i couldn't care less"
email verification is hard to do right (as said in top reply), oauth is annoying to get set up but more secure and all big providers have fancy recovery and login methods
no oauth? get the hash or go away
